    I watched some of his lockdown clips. Interesting how he was coming up with basslines for songs that became massive hits when he still hardly knew which way up to hold the instrument, quite a natural talent. His cameo in the film King Rocker is delightfully self effacing. 
    Tipton is a small fishing village in the borough of Sandwell.

    Nice to see an older pop star still so clearly in love with music.

    He's a fantastic player, and quite under-rated... presumably because he was in a 'pop' band.

    One of my biggest influences in taking up bass - although I don't play like him - and one reason why I love Aria SB basses.

    Amazing bass player, whether you like Duran or not, the talent is undeniable. One of my faves of all time.

    Fantastic musician. Hugely underrated. I spent my early 20’s in a Duran Duran influenced band.
