Must admit to preferring Claptons playing on this. Its a lot more relaxed and fluent IMHO of course. Just personal opinion. For me this is the style of music where Clapton was in his element. This is how i always think of him. Dave

I don't know who Cantona is. I believe he's a footballer but living in Scotland we have no knowledge or experience of good players .............. IMHO of course Dave

So much knowledge of model railways on this thread i've now started a Model Railways thread in OFF TOPICS. Save us derailing @Baxlin's thread. Dave

Its Basschat. Bass players have a low attention span and usually drift off thread into .......oh the news is on TV........must be breakfast time...........wonder if i can get the bike out today .......

This could lead to a Class war between train buffers

HO-HO-HO

Fare do's

Guess i'm neither UP nor DOWN

Coupled with the relevant timetable i'm sure we could train ourselves to travel almost anywhere along the line and perhaps station ourselves at the appropriate junction Dave

Are you lot trying to railroad this thread. Sounds like you might be steaming. Dave

I'm at the planning stages too for next year when i move it into a Garden Building. Had house layouts but visitors think its a toy so i dismantled it all. Was going to put one in loft but temperature change winter to summer creates problems plus it can affect your house insurance if loft used for more than storage. Bit of a grey area apparently. Big Garden Shed it is then. Dave

There are others on BC for sure.

Railway Children. I should have known that one to be honest. One of my fav classic movies. That and Titfield Thunderbolt of course. Dave

Who's Mr Perks ? Sorry i better google that as it seems uncool on BC if you don't know someone. Dave

Nowt wrong wie that. Its my hobby after bass. 1:76 scale model railways. Relaxing drifting off into another world and better times . Dave

But was the pub good ? 🍺

I'm a Scot so football obviously not important for us any more

Didn't work for me. Hair's clean but i'm still rubbish at bass

I like this. 👍

Midnight Moses just in case anyone is getting confused. Both by the amazing SAHB

I get you there @Baxlin. For something that started off as a simple question about whether his music is mediocre the thread seemed to take a turn for the worse. Shame as it could have been an interesting thread and could have been used for other "mature" musicians still going. Dave

Thought he was good in Kaja but since then he has just totally impressed me with the things he's accomplished. I'd agree the man is a legend in his own time. He can play any style, finger, pick, slap and Chapman stick. And he comes across as a genuine nice guy. Dave

At 60 i don't actively go seeking music but regularly come across a band on youtube i've never heard before. Most times i hear suggested bands on BC and think they are worth looking into a bit more. I'm not one for streaming or downloading music, i prefer to buy the CD. Only thing i've noticed is that i do seem to listen to my favoured styles of music like Prog. In recent years some cover bands i've been in had songs from artists i'd never heard so that was a new avenue i did search out. Greg Allman, Tony Joe White being examples. I've bought CD's from younger bands that were suggested on BC. Dave

Yep it surprised me when i first saw them doing The Four Horsemen. Vangelis on keys too Dave

Not a boast on my part. Someone suggested that they were shocked or surprised that everyone hadn't heard of him. Unless you are into that style of music or even follow that particular musician then why should everyone know him. Bet there are many other "famous" musicians i haven't heard off in music genres i don't listen to. Dave
