Description

A never before published interview with John Entwistle, bassist for The Who, from 1996.

In the interview Entwistle talks about:

Why he picked up the bass

His sometimes forgotten contributions to The Who’s music

How he made his first bass

How he mistakenly developed his bass-playing style

If he admires any other bass players

His thoughts on Tommy the broadway show

What he thinks about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

His cartoon character art
