Your musical influences
Too many to mention ,but The Commodores, Kool & The Gang ,in fact it was Robert Kool Bell that got me hooked on playing the Bass when i saw him and the band as a teenager performing @ Top Rank Suite in Reading 1976.I was at the front of the stage just watching playing Bass in his white suite and looking cool ,i said to myself that i wanted to be like that.
