I love Ellefson, he is the bass player I mostly think of when I think of Megadeth, but James is a better player, and does more interesting basslines. This song is a great example of that. Ironically, all the best basslines from Dave are on Risk. And I'm not a hater of that album, I actually think its quite good if it didn't have the Megadeth label on it. Its not a Megadeth album, but as its own thing, its great. And Jr. had the ability to spread his wings on it, and not just follow the guitar riffs.
What? Holy moly, this guy is freaking amazing! I mean his skill level is so high, I had no idea, and I seen him perform live with Megadeth like twice. It definitely sounded good but unaware he’s this dame good!
no - this is what Nita told me: yeah my guitar was out of tune with the cold! I could have made it through with the fine tuners but my solo was next and I wanted Brian to have time to get it back to being perfect
Yeah it is pretty basic. She should have extended a solo in a song versus getting a guitar solo, she's not ready for it yet or she was having a slow night.
Yes! It's on "Love It To Death" from 1971! Absolutely fantastic song! (apparently, when Alice sings the "I've Got To Get Out Of Here" lines that get faster and faster, Bob Ezin buried Cooper under a large pile of chairs to get the feeling of being trapped!) 🤔
