Fun to see James producing Bob Rock instead of the other way around. Being a producer isn't about how well you can play, it's about getting people to nail their parts and offering "outside the box" suggestions.

Lars is the last guy to talk about practicing their instrument.

I think it was at this point that Bob decided they were getting a new bassist ASAP.

James and Lars become Bob Rock..... *Oh how the tables have turned*

I consider Bob Rock a part of the band. Not only did he produce AMAZING albums for the band and bring out amazing new talents within them, he also played bass when they needed one in a bind. John Marshall, Lloyd Grant, Ron McGovney and Dave Mustaine are part of the band too. That can never be taken from them.

Love to see the progress, how they are just sitting there relaxed, looking in a paper and listen, coming with input now and then. And suddenly they know how it should sound, when they found the right riff, the right tempo etc. That creative process is fascinating.

James: "Dude, he's our focking producer... and now we're going to let him record bass parts?" Lars: "Calm down... you remember how I mixed Justice, right?"

I always like these because you know the finish product and hear glimpses and seeing it be created is always cool to me

Damn, that's one of the earliest Spector Basses made. I think it's a late 70's-early 80's (Gene Simmons played a black one, that was one of the first ever built on the Alive II Tour), because it has the Precision pickup in the old type, weird shaped DiMarzio pickup cover. Those pickups are getting more n' more impossible to come by. I hoarded a few sets of 'em up back in the mid 80's that I still use in a couple of my older Fenders to this day. I betcha that bass would probably sell for 8 grand, maybe more. Not a lot of those made, at all. It's pretty much a holy grail bass, to say the least.

It didn't help that the Spector bass that Bob Rock is using was previously owned by Scott Smith, who was Loverboy's bass player. So you had an 80's pop bass sound on a Metallica album. This might answer a few questions.
