Beethoven’s Violin concerto. Find that classical music relaxes me…

 

[TurboDog910]

Last band I started covered Sir Psycho, Apache Rose Peacock and Funky Monks off that album. Also True Men Don’t Kill Coyotes off the first album.

Thats pretty cool. I’m guessing Flea is one of your top bassists of all time?That was such a great time for music.

For sure. I haven't cared for any RHCP output since One Hot Minute though. I'm a huge fan of their first 4 albums. And of course BSSM was a masterpiece. That album came out at the perfect time for me. I had become disillusioned with music, being raised on 60s and especially 70s hard rock bands like Zeppelin, Cream, Sabbath, etc.. Very little of the 80s impressed me. My (now ex) wife bought me one of those newfangled CD players, which initially angered me since I had an extensive collection of cassettes, and one of my buddies gave me a copy of Blood Sugar and Facelift by AIC. My faith in music was restored. Next thing you know I'm buying all the early RHCP albums ( well, CDs), Nirvana's first album I love as well as Nevermind, Soundgarden, STP, The Melvins. All those bands made a massive impression on me.

Anyway, In that style my top 3 bassists, in no particular order, are Flea, Les Claypool and of course the immortal Larry Graham.
