I'm glad his family is releasing posthumous recordings. They sound awesome to me.

Me too---  not all equally, but they are fascinating to listen to :

Japan '84
  • Live In Japan 1984
Poland '98
  • Warsaw Summer Jazz Days &amp;amp;#39;98
Gny 2010

First name I thought of.

Nick Mason has had to hand off some Floyd duties as he wasn't capable and he seemed to be relaxed with it.


That was one I had in mind, but Pink Floyd is my favorite band, and I wanted to see how long it would take for someone else to mention him :)

Let's say you have a great singer who plays bass (since there's already 4-5 guys) but not very well, and can admit to it. Just playing the root. No more, no less, OR, a guy is there because he's best friends with someone, or they grew up...  Maybe someone looks back and can say, "Well, in the 60s my ______ wasn't very good" (but could be good or even great now).

I read this more than usual, but it's not usually my favorites, so I tend to forget.... Even if it's just an album or a song, where someone in a popular band can say, "Yeah, I played like garbage".... even if it sold millions. Even if all the fans loved it.
