Ok, Josh Homme has been on this list already…but this time it’s more about a sound he created.  It’s what I like to call…

THE MAGICAL BASS SOUND!

Oh, the beautiful sound that Josh Homme seems to get from his bass guitar.  It sounds so pounding and sexy.  I love it.  The perfect bass guitar sound would somehow mesh this with Paul McCartney’s sound.  The heavens would sing.

Here’s the best example I can think of: “Burn The Witch” from the Queens of the Stone Age album Lullabies to Paralyze.  I’ve included a live version and the studio version for your listening pleasure.
