Barry Adamson. I spent hours learning all the bass lines on The Correct Use of Soap. Live he was always cool and correct - new wave with Magazine and then something more spiky and weird with the Bad Seeds. And his album Oedipus Schmoedipus is one of the all time greats.
Mick Karn. He opened up new worlds for me. No, he really did. To watch him playing live was a total mystery & an absolute joy. How was he doing that, why did it sound so fabulous? Nothing was the same afterwards. That’s how hard his playing hit me. And still does.
