The Deep End version of "Soulshine" had Willie Weeks on bass, Little Milton on guitar and vocals and Chuck Leavell on organ/wurlitzer. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Ohio | | I'm just going to assume you've seen the Deep End documentary made by Mike Gordon... right? 
Oddly enough, Jason Newsted is the only bass player not appearing in the film...I would assume it to be related to contractual obligations with Metallica...

My only quibble with it is that it focuses so much on Warren and not enough on the bassists - but it's always like that.

The man can sing and play his butt off! |
