Question: Was Joe Gittleman or Mickey Thomas, both whom are known in America, was known by the name "The Bass Fiddleman"?
Context: Loveless Fascination is the fourth album by Starship.  As the first album of new material released by the band since 1989's "Love Among the Cannibals", this is the first album by the band to feature only Mickey Thomas from the band's original line-up; as well as the only album by the band to feature any of the featured members' other than Thomas himself. Joe Gittleman (born April 6, 1968 in Cambridge, Massachusetts) is an American musician, best known as the bass guitar player for The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.  His proficiency on bass earned him the nickname "the Bass Fiddleman." "Fooled Around and Fell in Love" is a single written and performed by blues guitarist Elvin Bishop.  It appeared on his 1975 album "Struttin' My Stuff" and was released as a single the following year.  Bishop does not sing lead vocals on the track; feeling that his gravelly voice wouldn't do the song justice, he invited vocalist Mickey Thomas, who was a background singer in his band at the time, to sing it.  The song peaked at #3 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 singles chart in May 1976.  The record was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America on June 23, 1976.  In Canada, the song reached number 22 on the singles chart and number 8 on the Adult Contemporary chart.  The song became a Gold record. "Only the Fool Survives" is the second single from the Donna Summer album "All Systems Go" and is a duet with Mickey Thomas, lead singer of the band Starship (formerly Jefferson Starship).  The ballad was released as a single in North America and Japan. John Michael "Mickey" Thomas (born December 3, 1949) is an American rock singer, best known as one of the lead vocalists of Jefferson Starship and Starship. Max Volume is the stage name of American musician, radio personality and voice-over artist Glenn Bailey.  Volume is a disc jockey at Reno, Nevada Classic rock radio station KOZZ, and a singer-songwriter-guitarist with the [Max Volume Band].  Either solo or with The Max Volume Band, he has opened shows for Aerosmith, Y&T, UFO, Thin Lizzy, Dave Mason, Lacy J. Dalton, Pat Travers, Les Dudek, Steve Morse, Mickey Thomas, Foghat, Edgar Winter, Reo Speedwagon, Frank Hannon of Tesla, and many others.  He has released 6 albums on the Tadzhiq Music Group Label.  For three consecutive years (1989–91) Volume was voted "Best Ears in America" by industry publication Friday Morning Quarterback (FMQB).  In 2001, Volume was inducted into the Nevada Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame.  Volume is the Afternoon Drive DJ, Mondays through Fridays, on KOZZ-FM 105.7. Come All You Madmen is the fourth album from Los Angeles-based punk rock band The Briggs.  The album was released June 17, 2008 through SideOneDummy Records and was produced by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones' Joe Gittleman, as with their previous album "Back to Higher Ground". The Mighty Mighty Bosstones (stylized as The Mighty Mighty BossToneS; informally referred to as The Bosstones) are an American ska punk band from Boston, Massachusetts, formed in 1983.  Since the band's inception, lead vocalist Dicky Barrett, bassist Joe Gittleman, tenor saxophonist Tim "Johnny Vegas" Burton and dancer ("Bosstone") Ben Carr have remained constant members.  The line-up also includes drummer Joe Sirois, saxophonist Leon Silva, guitarist Lawrence Katz and trombonist Chris Rhodes. Fluent In Stroll is the seventh studio album by the Boston ska punk band Big D and the Kids Table, released on July 7, 2009 by Side One Dummy Records.  It was produced by Joe Gittleman of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones and features backing vocals by Sirae Richardson, Hayley Jane, and Nicole and Simone Olivia, who perform as the Doped Up Dollies.  Its title refers to the band's new musical direction dubbed "stroll", a mix of double-Dutch, ska, reggae, and soul. Avoid One Thing was started as a side project by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones' bassist Joe Gittleman.  The Boston-based group's first album, titled "Avoid One Thing", was released in 2002 on Side One Dummy Records.  The album was written and recorded almost solely by Gittleman.  Gittleman assembled a band with which to tour and play his music.  Before the release of the band's next album in 2004, the band went through several lineup changes.  John Lynch joined the band after Dave Karcich's death due to a sudden brain aneurysm.  Later, Delano left and the band continued as a three-piece.  The trio returned to the studio and released "Chopstick Bridge" on May 4, 2004.  The album reflected the combined efforts of all three band members and sounds vastly different from their first in many respects; Amy Griffin and Gittleman even split lead vocals on a few tracks.  After the release of this album, the band toured until February 2005 before going on hiatus.  Since that time, Griffin has been playing guitar for Darkbuster and Gittleman has moved to Los Angeles and is once again a member of the reunited Bosstones.  Paul Delano underwent emergency surgery in 2006 and a series of benefit shows were held.  John Lynch has since joined up with David Minehan and is now playing drums for The Neighborhoods.
