    Apoligies, sleep dep is my only excuse. 8 hours of third shift, 2.5 hours of sleep, 24 ounces of soda, 16 ounces of coffee, 8 hours of shooting, 4 hours of movie watching before posting.

    that's understandable, i just felt it needed correction because she went to all the trouble of putting an apostrophe in and all....

    One whole page and nobody mentions Bootsy Collins?



    A few more, since it looks like the doghouse players need some love:



    Charles Mingus(!)

    Edgar Meyer

    Charlie Hayden

    Paul Chambers

    Ron Carter

    Ray Brown

    Percy Heath



    The last two are not so much technically brilliant (though they're very, very good) as smooth and tasty.



    If we're including Peter Hook I'll put in for Fugazi's Joe Lally as well.
