Members TheGZeus,OnFire Posted April 16, 2006 Members Share Posted April 16, 2006 Great singer, great band, great stuff overall. The bass player uses a bow as much as his fingers, interestingly. It's kinda sad that it seems he ended up taking to almost whoring himself out to movies ant TV shows as a novelty. Guess he kinda lost his edge when he could freak-out-dance and do songs about coke, opium, and whores any more. His dance moves were stolen by Little Richard, Prince, Michael Jackson.... Sadly the music I've heard that's most influenced by his is Oingo Boingo. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Oingo Boingo, but ONE band..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members One Bad Monkey Posted April 16, 2006 Members Share Posted April 16, 2006 Milt Hinton (Cab's bassist for a while) was the best, period. There are few - few - bass players that haven't been influenced by him, either directly or indirectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
