1. If you're going to put yourself on YouTube for the world to see, put on some damn pants.

2. I think the statement that Jamerson's bass was "used on more recordings than any other bass" is a bit of a stretch and was pulled out of his hat. I'd argue that at least Joe Osborn's jazz appeared on more recordings as a total number.

You might have less fun trying to argue against 'Jamerson's bass was used on more #1 recordings than any other bass...'

Someone should also push for a search for the Bass of Doom. I remember a dream where I found someone who had both the Funk Machine and the Bass of Doom up on the walls as decoration. I talked them into exchanging them for my Fenders.

It was a pretty good dream, although only slightly more likely than the one where I have a threesome with Lauren Graham and Alicia Witt.

While I can understand your motivation with Adriana, when I look at Hayden, I can only be aware that she is between the ages of my kids.

That makes for instant dirty-old-man feelings. No thanks. Not for me.

She might not be a crime anymore, but she's still two years younger than my son.


So, she's awfully cute, but sexy? Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeew..

That video was painful to watch. I shut it off when he began playing.

I'm a tad confused by the whole verification thing. Obviously James Jamerson was the only person who could scratch "funk" onto a 1962 bass...?
