Sounds pretty bang on to me.Wobble's work on the first couple of PIL albums is f**king staggering,especially as he was a novice at the time.And the man just got better,love that Dub bass style.

Perhaps I would add JJ Burnell, Tony Petit and Craig Adams to the list.

Peter Hook. I like his style of playing best, as a main instrument and I am of course a great Joy Division / New Order fan. I really like Wobble's playing with P.I.L., especially Public Image, but I'm not familair with his solo work.

Hooky or Wobble :?:

Feck! :|

Hooky admit's he still doesn't know what note he is playing in and Wobble also did the bass on The Orb's - The Blue Room 8) and Primal Scream's - Higher than the Sun (Dub Symphony in 2 parts) 8)


I can't choose! :?

Saw Jah Wobble in a club in London circa 1983. Put me to sleep. That geezer from Muse is pretty impressive. Oh yes, and this fella.
