Perhaps it’s because they did so many things so well: funk metal, hard rock, pop-balladry, and permutations thereof that Extreme was denied the superstar career they so richly deserved.
Bassist Pat Badger – on traditional 4 and extended range – seamlessly shifted gears as the music warranted. Badger’s tone exuded both depth and clarity – which afforded Gary Cherone and Nuno Bettencourt the platform to strut their stuff. They had they hooks, they had the looks, and they had the chops…go figure!
