When you're at that "stage" in your life when most of the calls you get are in relation to stamps or coins with Philo's head on them, and Gary Moore, along with Brian and Scott on the Lizzy 50 years stamp. When you know you've been on an album with Bob Dylan, Santana, Blood Sweat & Tears, Chicago, Miles Davis, Johnny Winter - the original Skid Row, Noel Bridgeman, Gary Moore, the album "Rock Buster" 1970 CBS.
Til this day, the legendary Taste drummer John Wilson, and the equally legendary Eric Bell plus countless musicians of a particular genre around the world, would much prefer if I played bass.
So here we are in 2020, we've already put up Felicity for all the cognisants of my particluar style, Heavy Blues with acknowledgement to Ray Brown on the Oscar Peterson Night Train album.
The criteria for originality can be the inability to copy properly. It's a controlled freeform of bass, for all of those who still try to play to the best of their ability.
So for all my old musical friends this one is for you, hope to touch bass with you in 2020.
