BASS AND DRUM IMPACTS – PULSES, INFLECTIONS, DEMOLITIONS
This is the second in a series of posts highlighting instrumentalists, vocalists and bands who have had a particular impact on my writing / playing and my approach for If Not If. A general introduction to the idea behind this series of playlists can be found here.
Below are two playlists, one for bass and one for drums/percussion. For what it’s worth the players I come back to most are:
Bass: Percy Jones, Vic Wooten, Chris Squire, Jonas Hellborg, Gary Willis, John Wetton, Danny Thompson, Bootsy Collins, Larry Graham.
Drums and percussion: Gavin Harrison, Chad Wackerman, Jeff Sipe, Steve Smith, Jon Fishman, John Marshall, Elvin Jones, Stewart Copeland, Trilok Gurtu.
