In fact, here he is, playing bass on, yes, "Big Bottoms" with Spinal Tap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UOYKgXk4yE

Satriani and some of the others mentioned are just great musicians.

And there's a pretty good chance some of the bass parts on I Advance Masked and maybe Bewitched were played by Fripp.
I'd love to hear guitarist Marc Ducret play bass. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
