He's just taking credit for what he's done. If he's really that much onto being important, he wouldn't accept the fact that he's considered a full time band member.

assumption. You can't know what he meant. Personally, I am convinced he hasn't played on more than 2-3 songs on any album before These Days. from his statements you can't contradict me.

Also, when talking about which of the bass lines he came up with and loves the most, he's mentioning Livin' On A Prayer and Keep The Faith most of the time. So it's safe to assume it's Hugh on Slippery too, even though that doesn't match the idea you have of Alec.

Can you maybe show me the interview or the quote or whatever? As far as I know Richie came up with the bass line on Prayer. But I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Also, this doesn't mean that Alec didn't play or came up with Wanted, Raise Your Hand, Never Say Goodbye or Bad Name (which has a kille bass line by the way)

No, he said he did play on all the albums except for 7800 Fahrenheit. So yes, he played on the other songs of the first one too.

If you look at the dates where the song were recorded you would see Runaway is months apart from the other songs. Also, from a recording perspective, most of the songs were recorded almost at the same time as the ones on 7800. He said he played on BJ because he played on Runaway (the only song)...similarly he could've said the same about SWW after playing Prayer only!
