Hey, look at him, he really is a master of the bass! Most part of the gig he was just playing one string of his guitar so one can be confused... but look at this:

Hey everyone,

Thanks Elangelo for this great addition! I love the song San Francisco Bay Blues, though until now I've only known that from Eric Clapton... and I can join one of the YouTube comments; is this bass playing or guitar playing? :D

And really, though as for me noone can overgo Sylvin Marc, it's the second time Mr. Hodgkinson's definitely proven me he's perfect for being CR's bass player. (The first one was his two-minutes solo on the last tour :D )

Thanks again,
Chris

Oh yes, he surely is perfect for CR, it's sometimes pity to me that a bass player like Colin has to play on one or two strings all the time and that it's very seldom he gets a chance to show what he really can do. But that's a common thing for all the bands, someone has to be a background...
