what a great band! I like their newest album(By The Way) quite a bit! They have really matured and yet are still the same RHCP's we know and love----minus some of the raunchiness

WOW! You menioned my favorite Beatles song "Rain". What an amazing bassline on that track. I agree with you on McCartney's technique. Also consider the fact that he was a guitar player before becoming the bassist for the Beatles (Stu Sutcliffe being the "original" bassist for the band). He actually played it more like another lead guitar.cygnusx1 said:Paul McCartney is certainly an amazing Bass player ...........what strikes me after hearing such treats as Rain and Dear Prudence is his amazing melodic style. I am so thankful that George Martyn recognised this dynamic sound and turned it right up in the mix !
I think McCartney was attempting to use the bass as another vocal , that is how I interpret it anyway.
