Interesting approach on "Tom Sawyer". I first became aware of him when he was playing with Richard Elliot. Al's that dude.

I love his tone in Michael Jackon's This is It. He is playing '74 Jazz with EMG pups.

There were a lot of great clinics at Bass Player LIve, but Alex brought in a band that was from the MJ gig and the George Lopez gig and flat killed! IMHO, the best and most useful clinic about how one can make a living in the Biz.
