I did some updates to Wheat's BassBook this weekend. This makes the first time I've updated that site in about four years! I didn't make any major changes, but I did extend a few things and fill out some missing content here and there. I also made a few minor style tweaks that improve the layout. You can see a summary of the changes on the What's New page.

Steve Lawson is well known for his work as a solo bassist and his expressive
playing on both fretted and fretless six-string basses. He has released six
CDs focussing on the bass in solo and duo contexts, often creatively employing
looping technology. The latest of these,
Behind Every Word,
was released June 19, 2006. Steve (SL) and I (WB) conducted this interview
through a series of emails during the week of July 17-21, 2006. We discussed
his solo albums, his approach to bass a solo instrument, his influences,
and the independent role he has created for himself. [My apologies to Steve for Americanizing his spellings in the final draft.]
