Graham Maby

Joe Jackson Band bassist Graham Maby's incredible chops reached out and grabbed me when Look Sharp! was released back in 1979. His playing is as much the focal point of the songs as Joe's piano. Something about his style and tone on this song reminds me of John Entwistle's solo on "My Generation".

I had the great good fortune to see Graham perform live with They Might Be Giants a decade or so ago -- man, can that guy play.

Baby Stick Around
