    I'm *loving* these power trio vids. Tremendous stuff lads. :D
    Great playing, & totally shows how bass with drums are the guts of most music.
    If I were rich, I'd totally have that Stingray btw.
    p.s. give Tayler a mic at the beginning to at least tell folks his name & drop a drummer-esque one-liner "I'm Tayler, & today I will hit stuff" delivered in a deadpan Spinal Tap manner would fit right in with the lightheartedness of these imho ;)

    • @SocksworthRiffs

    Geddy Lee has so many great baselines that it's hard to pick one but you might choose YYZ or The Trees or gosh, so m.j any choose from. In addition to his straight bass lines, a lot of his synthesizer work was done on his bass through pedals. He is one of the best players ever in my humble opinion.
