I certainly wouldn't want folks to think I was a one trick pony. He probably doesn't care about stuff like that anyway! |

|  | Registered User | | | | I was blessed to see Bill Dickens a number of years ago playing an Ibanez Musician bass (great sounding bass!!) with Ramsey Lewis in a trio setting. While he displayed riduclous chops and blew everyone away when soloing, he was grooving to the max! There is more to Bill than pyrotechnics!
