@mariner4life I thought you were going to post a song from the new album.
Fake news!
A lot of that about today

There's no way that Waters and Mason played the rhythm section on The Wall. Gilmour is probably the only one who's on the album. Even the trademark Waters bassline is doubtful.
The bassline at the start of Comfortably Numb is way too warm and smooth to be Waters.

Interesting theory. For all Waters undoubted talent as a Rock star being an amazing bassist isn't one of them. Mason did some pretty cool drumming in the live in Pompeii album though.
I'm not sure what it is about Gilmour, a lot of his stuff is not technically hard to play as such but ask anyone to go out there and replicate his sound and feel and no one can. That's what makes him a guitar god, probably in my top ten.

Where did that come from?
It's a well-known fact that Jeff Porcaro played the drums on "Mother" as Mason couldn't get his head around the time-signature changes.

@jegga There are conflicting stories about how much overdubbing was done.
Plenty of classic and more modern "live" albums contain a lot of studio overdubbing too.
It apparently inspired a wave of live albums that were similarly overdubbed . The book gives a great rundown on how the studios screwed over bands and squeezed every last cent out of them before dumping them .
Tony Iommi doesn’t come out of the book well , Dio is probably the only one who does -

@jegga And Sharon?
Awful , just like her father . Tony Iommi fucked her when she was a teenager and wouldn’t leave his wife for her so she spent a lot of time making his life miserable.
Before liposuction came along she was apparently a porker too. -
@jegga by marrying ozzie?!! Far out!

The Arden/Levy family (Sharon and both parents) seem really dysfunctional and vindictive. But Sharon shafts anyone if it makes her and Ozzy money.
Perry Farrell told her Ozzy wasn’t cool enough for Lollapalooza when she tried to get him on the bill so she set up Ozzfest to spite them which became bigger and outlasted Farrell’s festival.
She bailed out Iommi and paid his legal bills in the 90s when he was arrested for not paying child support, she made him give her the Black Sabbath name in return so they could only use it on her terms . It worked out ok when they reformed as Heaven and Hell with Dio as a singer , they got a tour and an album that charted . Iommi had completely discredited the Sabbath name anyway by using the band as a way of supporting his coke habit and becoming spinal tap in the process .
