His bass, I mean. Just to clarify, I personally would hope not- although I do. The reason I ask is that a guitarist friend(I'm very open minded, yes?) said he heard some "new" Tower Of Power, & there was A "ton of slap" on it- somebody, please, SAY IT AIN'T SO.

C'mon guys- I know (hope, really) it's a dumb question- I'm really just repeating it for the sake of shooting down my admittedly out-of-the-loop friend. Heppabruddahout! |

My wife & I have this gift of becoming invisible in restaraunts, or other service related businesses, usually when we need service. I didn't know I could do it here. My wife is not here, now, if that helps. Help me, Spock... |

Well i dont really know, i really doubt Rocco would start slapping now, he's always been a solid finger funk guy. |

The album I meant is "Back on the Streets" btw., he slaps on several tracks.

Hey, JMX-I actually posted this first, but thanks again- and again, which album?
Bassjamn, you hear me perfectly well! JMX says it's on some old stuff. I'm still hanging on to a thread of hope that it's all a bad dream- a very bad dream...

I'm done, now- must go neglect the kids. Mr. Hart, if it makes any difference, I really like your basses... |

I have no problem with anyone slappin' the bass- except Rocco. That would just be wrong. Or me.That would just be annoying (doesn't ever stop me, though). |

I couldn't recall Back On The Streets until I checked on it over at AMG saw the cover.
Now I remember(sorta). A very disappointing release; TOP doin' Disco.
Badly.
