[kj] (OT) Bass cadets

[Bette Dillinger]

They were great when they started out...."Shiny Happy People" isn't a song off the three albums I mentioned.  I think when Michael Stipe cut those pretty locks, all the talent went with them.......but he did discover the Chickasaw Mudd Puppies, so I still gotta give him props.

Really?  Didn't get into "Murmur"?  I think "Pilgrimage" is one of their best songs ever.

That whole 1st REM 5 song EP was sick and twisted. The only other record that comes close it "Reckoning".

Pete Buck (I am only speaking of early REM, like "Chronic Town", "Murmur" and "Reckoning") had such a distinctive style of guitar playing.  Actually inspired me in so many ways.  They were so great in their early years.  Isn't Mike Mills the name of the bassist?  Just listening to "Wolves, Lower" and am astounded by his playing.  
Who was the bassist on "Learning to Crawl"?  That had some tight bass lines, for sure.

  I was also going to say John Paul Jones, Youth, and 'that guy from Siouxsie & and Bs.' 

I'd just add Lee Dorman of Iron Butterfly, Geddy Lee (of Rush) of course, and the entire Reggae movement in general.
