If you could play as well as Billy Sheehen I'd pay for your airfare and accomodation!!!! Billy is a genious, and best bass player I've ever seen! :D

Compression?

Agreed. It's one of the best, if not THE best song by the band...

interesting video for "Stay Together", but the best stuff is the rock stuff imo... i think in all honesty they got to a stage where they were producing a lot of very average material, whereas bump ahead and lean into it for me are 2 albums where i think 90% of it is superb, and that even the other 10% is good/ok

they are all such amazing musicians, performers but for me billy sheehan stands out, and i love their version of Shy Boy

I was a big fan in the early 90's as well... My fave songs are Addicted to that rush, Had enough, Anything for you, Daddy-brother..., Voodoo kiss, To be with you, all songs on Bump Ahead (great album!), Goin' where the wind blows, If that's what it takes and Dancin' right into the flame. I also found an album with them from 1999 called Get Over It, but I haven't really listened to it. Paul Gilbert isn't on it...

I really haven't listened to any of their stuff with Richie Kotzen on it, I'm not sure if I want to :? To me Paul Gilbert was the only real guitarist for the band... I might give it a shot tho if I find the album in a shop somewhere.

As it is I've managed to lose my Lean into it, and I'm desperate to listen to it right now... :?

Mr. big are one of the best! Their songs are awesome. I love specially the first two records (the ones with Paul Gilbert!). I love songs like 'Never Say Never', 'Alive And Kicking', 'Vodoo Kiss', 'Addicted to That Rush',...great band!
Their last album, Actual Size, with Kotzen was very good. And i recommend everybody the dvd of their farewell tour!it's amazing!

I didn't see them live but i got the chance to see and talk to Bolly Sheehan when he came to Barcelona with Steve vai. Big player, bigger person!
