I don't need another bass (until I see something I like the look of, and then within 10 minutes it becomes absolutely essential that I buy it).

Helter Skelter - The Beatles

Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun - Pink Floyd

Jive Talkin'- BeeGees

Take Me To the River - Al Green

My Name Is Luka - Suzanne Vega

Anything with fast slap in it.

GK Fusion 550 is about the only amp left on my bucket list now. Never heard one but I bet it sounds gorgeous.

Hard Rain is Gonna Fall - Dylan

Key to the Highway - Eric Clapton

Highway Star - Deep Purple

Turn, Turn, Turn - The Byrds

I'd rather have a good band member than a good musician who doesn't pull their weight aside from performing.

My Koo Cashew - Alvin Stardust

It can certainly be frustrating. I play regularly in 2 bands. In one we rehearse regularly but there's always someone who can't make a gig. Sometimes really trivial reasons. So much work and expense for very little in return. The other band, we've never rehearsed once. We get plenty of local gigs and make reasonable money, but it's very difficult to add anything into the setlist and it's getting a bit boring and stale. I'm also getting old and have back and shoulder problems so that doesn't help. I don't want to throw the towel in because a gig nearly always gives me a bit of a lift, even if I suffer a bit for it. It's the only time in my life that anyone applauds something I do. I'm hopefully moving house soon so that might be a catalyst for change, one way or another. I have problems imagining being surrounded by all the lovely stuff I own with no use real for any of it.

From The Beginning - Emerson Lake & Palmer

I'd definitely have Bob Babbitt on that list. Did a whole lot of stuff that people thought was Jamerson.

Some more cheapo pedals to muck about with once, then chuck in the cupboard.

I Need Glue - America

The Gob on the Tyne - Lindisfarne

Getting the job done with no fuss = Cliff Williams Make people's jaws drop - Joe Dart

God Only Nose - The Beach Buoys

EHX Bass Soul Food would do the job. TC Mojomojo also. Joyo American Sound works well too. None of those cost much.

Ponk Salad Annie - Tony Joe White

That'll Be The Day - Buddy Holley.
