That was nice... I had never heard of him, so I did a little research, listened to "Wonderful Life" and still have no idea who he is. I wonder how I missed him.

Yeah I like that one. I don't know much about the guy, other than, he's from Liverpool U.K. The above track & 'Wonderful Life' is all I have of him.
(on two 12'' vinyl singles) I loved the swooping fretless bass, and the saxophone on, 'Sweetest Smile'
Here's another with that liquid fretless bass sound (provided by, Pino Palladino

I mentioned, Pino Palladino. Here he is in the John Mayer power trio.
When there's only three musicians in the band, you have to work your socks off if you're the bass player.
This was obviously recorded for a dvd ....and here one of the cams is trained on, Pino Palladino. Still think it's easy being a bass player?
....guys like him only give the illusion that it's easy.

There's nothing to see in this video...apart from the lyrics. This is the original, 'Caledonia' by Dougie McLean.
It was the Romans who named Scotland, Caledonia. Scotland was never romanised. The then , Emperor Hadrian, who reigned from A.D. 117-138 asked for a wall to built across Britain....built by Roman soldiers to protect Roman Britain from the Scottish warrior clans, who the Romans feared would rally with the northern English to push them out.
The reign of the Roman emperor Hadrian was a period of building, consolidation of the empire, and reform. The following countries that were once part of the Roman Empire, included England (without Scotland), Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Germany, Egypt, and the north coast of Africa.
The song Caledonia is often heard here at gatherings, and sporting occasions. It's also quite well know in Canada, where many descendants from Scotland live...the name, Nova Scotia means new Scotland.
Here's a pic I took when I was up north in the highlands. It's Loch Ness and that's the ruins of Urquhart Castle (pronounced "urk'at") There were people almost certainly here at least 4000 years ago. At nearby Corrimony is a burial cairn dating from about 2000 BC
