Title: Pegg numbers Post by: clive on October 10, 2006, 11:46:17 AM Hi Peggy, great to see you at Cropredy and on here.
As there appears to be a whole branch of mathematics devoted to who you've collaborated with, for example a quick search brings up this page http://www.stocton.org/peggnumj.htm (http://www.stocton.org/peggnumj.htm) , is there anyone left that you would really like to work with? I was watching Peter Gabriel's 'Growing Up' tour DVD the other night and if it's possible to fit 2 bassists on one stage, Tony Levin is one candidate from my point of view. (What's the collective noun for bass players btw?) clive Title: Pegg numbers Post by: peggy on October 10, 2006, 09:40:02 PM what ho ! You are right. I have had the great pleasure of hearing Tony close up and also got to meet and party with him on a couple of occasions. A tremendous bassist and in a different league from me. I would really like to play with James Taylor and my friend and hero Steve Winwood. I wouldn't turn down the chance to play with Mr. Thompson either! Cheers, peggy.

So twin bass line-ups are possible. Does that tempt you further to give it a go? Or how about a 'feast of fiddles' for the other end of the string spectrum? Cheers Nick Title: Pegg numbers Post by: peggy on October 12, 2006, 10:52:36 AM hi Nick. "big bottoms" eh? No one could do it better than Spinal Tap. Alan Thompson ( a great bass guitarist who played at Cropredy this year with John Martyn and Then came the wheel) tells me that there is a bass convention that he has been to in Scandinavia. S'posed to be great and I will try and find details . For me one bass is enough! Cheers, Peggy.
