Just discovered this guy last night. Now, granted, I don't know a lot about the world of bass guitar; but I'm *very* impressed with his style. Check this out (if you can handle one of the funkiest bass lines you've ever heard)

And this clip doesn't even showcase his beautiful voice! I'm _so_ infatuated!For more info on Richard Bona:"His Official Website":http://www.bonatology.com/"on Wikipedia":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Bona

SatisfiedMind614 says people who play an instrument that well shouldn't be able to sing TOO!! Its like 3% of the world monopolizes all of the musical talent...and the rest of us are left with nothing!! Thanks for sharing!

kat3260 says He's also got a thing going with Mike Stern Band...playing with them at the Blues Alley in DC on May 18-20. I do *not* want to miss that. And I'm with you Blair, some people just got the gift. His album just moved up to the top of my list, Woz.

Spike says I just noticed that the latest Mike Stern CD has Richard Bona on many of the cuts. Check out Victor Wooten, who also toured a while ago with Stern, and whose '96 CD "A Show of Hands" I recommend. Another bassist in their league is Arne Livingston, who played in the sax-bass-drums trio Living Daylights from Seattle, no longer together.

Spike says sweet kat3260...If you hear of Arne Livingston playing with Steve Kimock or anyone else, let me know. He was amazing to see perform live.
