Happy Birthday Adam Clayton!

[Joey788]

Happy 47th birthday to everyone's favorite bass player!

(If someone already made this topic, and I didn't notice it, then please delete this one.)

So I think that everone should list their favorite Adam Clayton bass parts.

Mine are MOFO, With or Without You, Mysterious Ways, and Do You Feel Loved.

Uh, Wire!

The most kick-ass bass Adam has ever played.

Here's hoping the new album has much of Adam! I could certainly do with some of the bass he demonstrated on ABOY and AMAAW.

Happy B'day Clayts.

Happy birthday Adam. Oxford's finest.
Best Adam era...musically...POP!!!
In terms of looking cool, it's a toss up between The Unforgettable Fire video, slightly chunkier, long wavy hair, beard or Where The Streets video, Adam looked so f'king cool then!

 

[Alisaura]

Many happy returns, Mr Clayton!

Because it's a special occasion, I am going to force myself to list just one favourite bass line....

*several minutes of agonising thought*

If You Wear That Velvet Dress


... and all the others!

 

[Carek1230]
