The Who - isolated bass track

[Donnie B.]

Won't get fooled again live.

 

[Exo-metal]

Why instead of who should have been their name.

 

[Donnie B.]

Why

You stalking me son?

If you're not a fan of, or can't appreciate The Who and Ox, just ignore the thread.


Listen to the section that starts at 4:00
That's as heavy a bass playing as any shit you listen to.

 

[Exo-metal]

No and no

 

[Donnie B.]

Alright then.
Your work here is done.

(psssst, you missed a NO)

 

[Exo-metal]

No and no, nothing the who has done is heavy

It's all about context.
Who's your top 5 favorite bass players and who do they list as their influences?

 

[ZEEGLER]

I've watched this many times and it's awesome. You can tell Entwistle is coked right up just by how he's breathing.

Who do you think these 3 kids were listening to as teenagers?

The Who, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple all influenced Lemmy, Geddy, and Cliff.

Motorhead, Rush, and Metallica all influenced a lot of the bands you probably listen to.

It's all relative.

Best live act I ever saw. Seen The Who in '71 and '75.

 

[Fiesta Red]

No and no, nothing the who has done is heavy

In their day, they were considered heavy. I don't think anyone would consider them heavy today. Some of their tunes are now on "the one radio station everyone in the office everyone can agree on." Good talent and good songs. Overplayed? Definitely.

 

[Exo-metal]

Over rated by far

 

[BeZo]

Bass!

 

[Donnie B.]

Overplayed? Definitely.

What sucks for them (and Zeppelin, Sabbath, Purple, Hendrix, etc.) is it's always the same 2 or 3 songs from each on the radio.

Sabbath did more than just Paranoid and War Pigs for Christ's sake.

You related to Richard Paul Rowe by any chance?

 

[Exo-metal]

I'm enjoying this. It's not my fault you joined the wrong forum thinking it was ladies digest.

 

[Donnie B.]

Equating The Who with Ladies Digest out loud will get you punched in the face in a lot of circles.

 

[Exo-metal]

Lol not by any men. There are many lame bands and arguably this is #1 I could give a fuck if any of the bass players you mention was into them. They suck ass and wrote nothing in all their years. You're a fan, who cares...

 

[Donnie B.]

Lol not by any men.

My #1 is Zeppelin for the record.
Just saying, most of the hard core Who fans I know are on the tougher end of the scale.

They were punk and thrash before anyone.

Always loved this one
