Stanley Clarke(studio/virtuoso).....so many to list, I know I'm leaving out good ones!

Whoa Stanley Clarke. I was roadkill after listening to Journey to Love. It was maybe six months before I could listen to anything other than RTF or Mahavishnu Orchestra. I know Journey to note for note. It is in my DNA. Hello Jeff, Concerto for Jazz Rock Orchestra and Song to John. The Alembic bass guitar completely changed the parameters that were imposed on the bass. There is a Phil Lesh and Friends DVD where he drags it out of the closet and bombs the audience. Remember vibrating feet.
