    Wasn't he just the best? I know everyone thinks Simon is a bass god, but have those people ever heard Greg's work with The Cure? I'm going to say no. : )

    I didn't know his name was Greg... I knew it was Michael. Or is he Greg Michael or Michael Greg? :)

    About his skills: Dempsey did a wonderful job in the debut album and I've also heard a bootleg with him playing A Forest live, before Simon joined the band.

    Michael (Greg) had a great groove, and great bass licks. I've always liked his style.

    Very interesting article. The loop thing explains a lot of the almost "drum machinish" sounds on 17 Seconds.
