"Because Larry, by then, was a drummer, who would sort of get bored and tired, and rather stand up and blow kisses to people. So we needed the bass to sort of drive along"
- Neil Innes
About this Quote

This indicated that the band required somebody to offer the driving force of the music, which is why they decided to add a bass gamer. Innes is highlighting the significance of the bass player in the band, as they supply the rhythm and momentum that keeps the music going.
