Are there any bass players that sing lead?!
Question: Drummers are uncommon enough to be notable: e.g., Karen Carpenter, Phil Collins, Ringo Starr. But what about bassists? Even when I was in a church choir, the bassists never sang. I've seen videos of Bernard Edwards (Chic) singing backup, but never lead.

If the world can have a flutist play and be the lead singer as Jethro Tull was, then nothing should surprise you.
