Graham Gouldman hardly ever gets a mention.

Ha! the infamous Battersea Park gig. I saw The Stranglers a few days earlier at Stafford Bingley Hall,we got just one solitary stripper for Nice n Sleazy. I have never seen such a hail of beer,gob and spit that was aimed in her direction,there were greenies hanging off her everywhere,but she still carried on regardless. Probably one of the most disgusting things i have ever seen. Brilliant show though JJ was on fire....not literally!

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1322149297' post='1447257'] The Analog Kid has immense power and energy, so does Digital Man. I don't think he's done much of any real note since Hold Your Fire. [/quote] Yep i would agree with that.

Well fancy that another mega Rush/Geddy anorak here and i was pondering that very question just the other week,and i also thought Alien Shore was his last ripping Bass line along with possibly Leave That Thing Alone. His change in style has definately toned him down a bit and is perhaps not as adventurous as he used to be. Sadly gone are the days when you put one of their new albums on and sit listening to his Bass leading from the front with jaw on the floor. Still buy everthing they do though...Geddy still walks on water!

[quote name='gelfin' timestamp='1321219846' post='1436728'] Off to see yes at Colston Hall, Bristol on Wednesday. I may sound like a bit of an anorak but I will have seen every UK tour since 1968. [/quote] I take my anorak off to you sir!...that is quite some feat. Have a great night.

[quote name='4000' timestamp='1321036698' post='1434769'] Can you do me a favour and ask Glenn to confirm whether it was the Ric or the P-Bass on Made in Europe? I believe it was actually the P despite the cover photos (and some distinctly Ric like upper-register tones), but I need to know! I've been fretting over this for years. FWIW, 2 of my faves too. [/quote] You know that is a question that bugged me for years,now i believe he used the Ric for the UK shows but swopped to the P for the Europeon shows...he says he gave the Ric to his mate Geezer Butler who still owns it! Will gladly ask him as i am hoping he will sign my 1976 Made In Europe LP,his playing on that was a huge influence on me as a 15 year old just starting out as a Bassist. btw Yes and Chris Squire were superb 4th row directly in front of the man himself all i could was his Bass mainly Bliss! All lot of the old songs are a lot slower now,but who cares.

Well off to see Yes shortly at Birmingham Symphony Hall and to worship at the alter of Chris Squire and then next Tuesday Glenn Hughes acoustic show at Brum Glee Club where he will personally sign copies of his autobiography! Thats 2 of my all time top 4 Bass heroes i will be seeing in 5 days.......sorry just had to share im just so excited!
