Whatever, it sounds fine, if a little predictable these days.... I see the Simon Gallup comparison, too, even if SG's 'signature sound' is an octave lower when he does the drone/high note 2-string chord bit.........

His stuff on such pieces as "A song from under the floorboards" still does it for me, after all this time. In fact, his performance all over "The Correct use of soap" is absolutely knockout...... dw Mileta Okiljevic wrote: nevermind, bass players from new wave always fascinated me..
