Another connection I have to Al is that these songs were the ones I learned to play on the bass resonably well [entirely with NO chord sheets]. Five years ago this was a HUGE milestone and allowed the "shakles" to be removed allowing me to play with much more freedom. It took a lot of effort.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
