My understanding is that Mark wasn't a bassist by nature or choice but rather picked it up when the band needed one. Self taught and absolutely brilliant so a bit like me in that regard.

11 posts and nobody mentioned John Entwistle?

 

Here he is - Won't get fooled again - with ONLY the isolated bass.

Next, the full band - not bad too - and the best lyrics ever!!!!!!

Watch this indonesian (!) guy play acoustic bass, with the lead guitarist on top, and later underneath his bass - watch, I kid you not.

This tube has a pretty rude Bass solo at 06:15 plus a  drum solo

The bassist employs various techniques and electronic effects, quite unique
