Skydog - one of the coolest nicknames ever
what impresses me about the ABB so much was the syncopation and their sort of symphonic sound, (e. g. the timbales)
then the testosterone filled crescendos that made your blood boil and your pulse fly
then the mellow breaks, the birdlike harmonics
Berry Oakley's bass solo on Mountain Jam. is he an underrated bass player (er what)?

Unfortunately, he has such a small body of work for him to be discussed with his contemporaries. However, what one can find is absolutely wonderful. Due to the set-up of the ABB (two rhythm/lead guitars, two drummers, keyboard/vocalist), he was allowed to step beyond the usual role of a bassist and contribute heavily to melody. The solos he had in Mountain Jam and Dreams are nothing short of smooth, melty greatness.
