There you go - it sure sounds like him

 

[Papersen]

Sounds a lot like him.

 

[DWBass]

Yep. Definitely JJ. How he did all that with one finger still amazes me!!

 

[don21480]

The way the bassline works in this song is so far removed from what I would have come up with that I am reminded why I love the bass guitar and the role it plays in music

 

[pyrohr]

Sounds more like Bob Babbitt to me...

 

[FrednBass]

What a brilliant bassist, it can never be overstated what a genius to the instrument he was. A study in greatness!
