This thread seems like the right place for people to put links where Hugh claims which bass parts he recorded in the studio during the Alec era. Anyone?

Wow what a creepy awkward kidnapper anthem. That hobo playing the sax was so scary, and the keyboardist looks like an ex porn actor

Hugh's old site has been deleted, so I'm not sure if they're online anywhere anymore.

Where? There used to be a Q&A -page where he answered and specifically told what he played on each album. Now there's just the discography section.

Well, It kinda said something like this:

Q: Have you played on all the BJ albums?

A: No, certainly I didn't play on 7800° Fahrenheit at all

No, it didn't. It said he had played on every album but 7800 and there were answers where he told that he had come up with the basslines for KTF and LOAP for example.
