What is it about chicks with basses that's so delicious?

She's dreamy. Helluva bass player. Teh hawt. I'll be in my bunk.

Goonie_Goo_Goo: What is it about chicks with basses that's so delicious?

I have no idea, but female bass players are the hottest musicians ever.

Goonie_Goo_Goo: What is it about chicks with basses that's so delicious?

I know! No kidding. When her, Matt Good and Limblifter were touring together, the Limblifter bass player (Meegee Bradfield) totally shivver'd me timbers.

Coolest last name ever.

D'Arcy?

Her lips look a little plumped up in this pic.

I've always liked this pic

She has that sort of look to her that you'd be all telling her you love her and baring your soul to her and then she'd just laugh in your face cruelly. Frankly, I find that sexay!!

I love her song Followed the Waves.


And her.

Pengfish: Coolest last name ever.

Auf Der Maur means "on the wall"

/ the more you know

The phrase 'her time in Courtney Love's band-hole' is my new favorite saying. because lots of musicians came and went.

She sure can handle that instrument in those photos.

I play a little bass. It's a very physical instrument and you need strong hands.

/I have something she can grab onto.

I play the Billy Bass. All you do is press the red button.

How's she doing with that pesky little crack addiction?

This is the thread for pics of hot bassists, right? Okay, just checking.

Heh... I was at that show at the SUB, too. Small word. And yes, either of them could have plucked my bass string.

/too much..?

Auf der Maur, D'arcy, Tina Weymouth, Kim Deal, Kim Gordon et al couldn't shine this woman's shoes.

When mentioning hot bass chicks, I submit one Paz Lenchantin for your perusal....

There was this girl
Who lived not too long ago
As a matter of fact I think
She lives still
She knew she could do no wrong
Just singin' those songs
That we all knew

She would always crash the party
It was no surprise
It was for her

Too Cool Queenie

There was this boy
He played in a rock-n-roll band
And he wasn't half-bad,
At saving the world
She said he could do no right
So he took his life
His story is true

It's ok cause what goes around, comes around
It's all right cause what goes around, comes around

And now this girl,
Yeah she got real famous
And she made lots of money and
Some of his too
But still she thinks she can do no wrong
Just playing those songs
She's all too cool

Nick Auf der Maur would be proud of her and he tells me to say this to her:
Sunshine...I'm proud of you. See? I told you I'd be around...;)

Melissa Auf Der Maur and Tal Wilkenfeld. I just slapped myself for what I was thinking.

Auf der Maur, D'arcy, Tina Weymouth, Kim Deal, Kim Gordon et al couldn't shine this woman's shoes.

Amen, brother. She's the one who taught us all. The most rock solid groove ever created. I still have her books and I'm not really a bass player.

Gangway Fathead: For people who may not recognize that pic of Carol Kaye above.

She spent the '60s as the most requested session bassist in L.A., playing on many of the tracks and albums that form the American pop canon: the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke, the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," "La Bamba," "These Boots Are Made for Walkin,'" Joe Cocker's "Feelin' Alright," the Doors' "Light My Fire," "I Am A Rock," "Wichita Lineman," the majority of Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound"-era productions, as well as most of the Monkees discography. Her credits show up everywhere, from "Theme from Shaft" and Frank Zappa's Freak Out! to Electric Prunes, Dusty Springfield albums, and literally hundreds more. Carol Kaye is said to be the most recorded bassist in history, with a purported 10,000-plus tracks to her credit.

Link to recent LA weekly article (new window)

Who cares? She's old, and unattractive, and will therefore be mocked by Farkers who can't play "Yankey Doodle" on the kazoo.

better late than never....

I knew who that hottie was, straight away!


/but then again, I'm a major rager on the 4-string.

I miss drinking with her father.

Never really knew him, but we went to the same places, and would chat.

And here I thought I was the only one.

I'm just posting to test something. Fark keeps saying that there is one more new post in this thread, and it's peeving me out!

If Rob wasn't dipping his pen in the company ink, they might still be together.
