where's the bass solo?
« on: September 17, 2013, 01:07:03 PM »
I tried asking this in the album discussion thread bit was ignored (twice).  In this video JP clearly mentions that there is a bass solo -

I've listened to the album three times but I've not heard anything resembling a bass solo.  Am I missing something here?

The solo fills/transitions in Enigma Machine are the "bass solo".

I was expecting a full-out bass solo as well, not an interlude or bass fill.


Regardless, and somewhat off-topic, the interludes on Enigma Machine are amazing and so is Myung's role on the whole album. I missed hearing him play so out there, groovy and up-front  :biggrin:
