I'm hoping that I convinced our lead singer that we should try to add "3/5th of a Mile in 10 Seconds" to our setlist. Thankfully we have the vocal harmonies ability to pull it off.
But, I floated it up there when I was in a weekend mellow mood and listening to "Bless It's Pointed Little Head." That's a fairly diffilcult bit of bass playing to try and mimic. So I figured I should lsiten to the other or earlier versions, right?
Funny enough, it's hard to find earlier versions, at least in my JA CD collection, which includes a bunch of what were once called "pirate recordings" and such.
But was a real EYE-OPENER, was the bass playing on the CD called "Jefferson Airplane: Return to the Matrix 02/01/68"
The bass part is really rudimentary, in contrast to the Bless It's Awful Little Pointed Head version.
So much so that it should be interesting to those on this forum who ask how to recreate the Jack Casady sound.
