Let's spread some musical misinformation

Jamerson, standing across the room with arms folded, smoked three and a half cigarettes while coolly watching Carole Kaye play a perfect part on the Fender Electric Bass Harp during the Bernadette recording........

At first I thought you meant in heaven, so I had to check and Carol Kaye isn't dead yet. Or maybe they would both be in hell together. Or maybe purgatory is endlessly rerecording Motown hits..

After leaving The Edge's head over creative differences, his hat formed his own band, U2 Too. It briefly included Bono's glasses and one of Larry's socks.

True fact - The Edge wasn't always called 'The Edge'; he started off life as 'Billy Boundary' but that wasn't ridiculous enough so he changed his name to 'Vlad The Verge', 'Sir Circumference', XTREMITY' and 'The Ledge' before finally settling on the utterly absurd 'The Edge'.

Are you sure he wasn't a member of the Flat Earth Society? Oops wrong thread.

Serious bass manufacturers always enclose a Mollier diagram with their instruments. The environmental conditions should unconditionally meet the area within the red lines, or warranty will be void.

Such diagrams, if done as a plot of key against time signature, can be used variously to determine if your practice regimen is challenging you, or if that prog rock band is just a bit beyond you. It's Robert Fripp's aim to explore all parts of said diagram, like a crazed Ahab captaining his musical ship with first mate Tony Levin.

(My autocorrect believes he should be called Robert Dripping)
