Chickenfoot: “Soap on a Rope”, Live

This has been a great week for bassist birthdays. Last but not least, we’re celebrating Michael Anthony’s today!

After his time in Van Halen, Anthony teamed up with former Van Halen vocalist Sammy Hagar, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, and guitarist Joe Satriani to form Chickenfoot. The bassist’s muscular bass lines and signature harmony vocals really shine on this version of “Soap on a Rope,” taken from the live DVD Get Your Buzz On.

He’s been rocking for over four decades, and you can tell he’s still loving every minute of it.

In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
