Robert Wyatt & Jimi Hendrix - Slow Walkin' Talk (1968)
Not sure if only

supergroup

bassist to play
on your song,
you could do
a whole lot
worse than
a certain Mr
J. Hendrix!!

Debbie Harry – Backfired (1981)
What Blondie
did next...
The title may

prophetic in terms
of chart-topping
potential but the
rap is strong &
the groove is true...

Johnny Guitar Watson - Ain't That A Bitch (1976)
Slick guitar slinger,
funk funnyman,
pseudo pimp &
superfly guy,
often tells it
like it is,
with a tongue firmly
lodged in a cheek
or two!
Ain't That A Clip
Ain't That A Rip
Ain't That A Sequel?

Captain Beefheart – Hard Workin' Man (1978)
This tune may sound

his own...
...& earns a
few bucks for
his troubles
