    having seen The Who with and without Entwistle I still haven’t seen anyone nail the bass line in My generation like he did 😀

    I explained why, and I wasn’t dissing him, I think he’s a legend. I’ll be eternally sad that I never got to see him play live.

    John Entwistle, bassist for The Who (obvs.)

    John Entwistle was about as front and centre as it gets, he certainly didn’t spend his career in the background. The lead singers and the lead guitarists may be the usual attention whores of the music industry, but they don’t always overshadow the rest of the group, and “the who” were one band where all members were widely acknowledged for their contribution.

    about a hundred drummers from the entire history of music? always in the background, but always at the forefront of the music.
