[quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1496316467' post='3310416']...with the exception of [i]Within You Without You[/i]. It just ruins the flow of the album and had my finger hovering over the fast forward botton. Shockingly awful. [/quote] One had to 'be there'.

All of this, although technically fascinating, is, in my view, complete overkill for domestic, amateur use. Of course, if one can do more, one can do less, so it's all useful info, but it's going to be a long time before I need more than my i5 proc or SSD. Not knocking it; if I was Cresus I'd probably bite the bullet, but my meagre resources don't spread to these 'cutting edge' techniques. I don't feel handicapped at all by my modest 'lean' system. Just sayin'.

[/quote] Snap, so +1. Yes, I still listen to all of those with great pleasure (as well as more recent, and much older (Schubert..? Bruckner..?) stuff...). It's all good, but special mention for 'Surrealistic Pillow'. S'been a long time comin'; s'gonna be a long time gone.

33..? Some of us here are already twice that..!

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1496268878' post='3310168'] How wrong you are... [/quote] Gets my vote; his best work yet. Still not enough cowbell, however.

[quote name='Meddle' timestamp='1496253838' post='3309999'] I'm watching this now in iPlayer.... [/quote] +1 Post of the week. Excellent review, spot on in all respects. Respect.

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1496252680' post='3309983'] Have I missed something here? What's mr. smalls done? [/quote] You're new here, then..?

[quote name='SH73' timestamp='1496245521' post='3309906'] I'm really struggling to vote. Every song has something unique about them. Would it be fair to say I'll give my vote to the three that received lesser votes? [/quote] The criteria for attribution of your vote are entirely up to you. There is no 'Skol Force' about to swoop down on those deigning to ignore the suggestions, despite all his bravado and bluster. Do as you think best, decide how you wish, invoke the hidden Punk in you, and be satisfied that you've made at least someone happier. 'Does it fit the picture..?' was the original notion, but we've come a long way down the anarchy trail since then ([i]sic [/i]Lenny. and a few other rebels..). Feel free, old chum; feel free...

[quote name='Monkey Steve' timestamp='1496237110' post='3309791'] see this this is exactly why it became a running joke that means I'll always use the wrong spelling... [/quote] It's taken me several years to get used to 'teh', or 'TIM' (and I still wake at nights, mumbling and shivering, at times...), and now there's a new one to provoke ripples in this millpond. Oh, well...

[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1496236436' post='3309782']... Have you ever thought of putting together a series of videos regarding this, as a sticky, maybe ?... [/quote] Modesty forbids it.

... and no-one will get hurt. Here's the stuff; just do it, you know it makes sense... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/306259-may-composition-challenge-voting/page__view__findpost__p__3309723"]Skol's Reminder ...[/url] Pop to the Top and chill out.

[quote name='Monkey Steve' timestamp='1496234130' post='3309756']...and find that I'm still doing it... [/quote] WELL, DAMN WELL STOP IT..! ...

Am I allowed to pedantically suggest that it should be 'cue', as in 'that's when to come in', rather than 'queue', where one waits in line to get served..? Just sayin', no malice intended.

[quote name='Fabrocker' timestamp='1496169998' post='3309332']... Don't know how to make YouTube window... [/quote] [media]http://youtu.be/GrmnwyqK9hg[/media] Remove the 's' from the 'https' at the beginning of the link, s'all. Nice solo, too; not too long..!

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1496148574' post='3309119']If you don't run Reason, you need Reason [/quote] I'll consider this once I've worked out what Reason can do for me that Reaper can't, and I have €369 spare. That may well not be next week.

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1495739647' post='3306301'] In just seven days, she can make you a man ... [/quote] It took my mum nine months, I think.

'Fat Angel', Jefferson Airplane with Jack Casady on bass, or... 'What to do with only two notes' (OK, and a couple of grace notes, if you insist...). A lesson in parsimony... http://youtu.be/O8M1oNgWhtk

I gave up worrying my pretty little head over 'looks' at the age of about four or five, probably as a result of bathing on a public beach wearing swimming trunks knitted by our dear mother. One quickly throws pride to the wind in such garments.

Fine tuna..! Mmm..!

For gear of this sort, from a retail outlet, there should be a paper invoice, which one would expect to mention a serial number. If such is missing, there should be an explanation as to why, failing which I'd smell a rat. Was there a box..? Sometimes there's a SN there, too. Hope it works out in your favour.

[quote name='obi 2 kenobi' timestamp='1495651460' post='3305657'] Hi, what is the name of the tool used to measure neck relief and string height ?... [/quote] You may be thinking of feeler gauges; a set of very thin metal 'shims' of various thicknesses which slide between the string and the fretboard. Here's a pic...

[quote name='KK Jale' timestamp='1495642652' post='3305563']...it's well worth nine minutes of your life... [/quote] +1 Thanks for sharing.
