Edit: your last post made things much more clear indeed.

I saw Jim play with sonic youth on two separate tours. He played extra guitar, very much in the background to lee and thurston, and when kim sang up front, jim would play the bass parts of the songs. My references were to the recorded output of sonic youth. not jim improvising on stage.

sonic youth forever!!!!!
