Thanks for posting this SpongeBob - it's gone to the top of my wishlist. Haven't found another band that work for me the like The Who. Chris

There's not many your size that come any bigger Andy - stories like this make it a pleasure to be part of the BassChat community. Chris

The Who 'Nuff said Chris

86% - not too bad for an OAP methinks.

Hi Jon. Sorry for delay replying - been on holiday. Sounds interesting- could you email some details/info to me, email address sent by text Chris

+ lots for 'Bridge Of Sighs" and some fine playing on "Too Rolling Stoned". The trio of Robin Trower, James Dewar and Reg Isidore was and still is something a bit special. Chris

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOUNG 'UN. A great 'feel good' post - thankyou. I hope all goes well for you in the future. Chris. BTW - I''ve just celebrated my 65th birthday and retirement and I'm still gigging, so far so good ! ! !

Sorry but ..................................... I didn't rate Sgt Pepper then and I don't rate it now. I never came to grips with all the fuss and hype, and I still don't. For me the best thing to come out of Sgt P is Joe Cocker's Woodstock version of "With A Little Help From My Friends". Chris.

Tempus fugit ...... as they say I enlisted on 18 May 2007 and I still visit BassChat daily. Thanks to all involved and especially those good folks who keep the site up and running. Look forward to more years of BassChatting. Chris

With the exception of the solo ....... 'One Of These Days' by Pink Floyd

....... that I went to see Frankie Goes To Hollywood at Birmingham Odeon (I've still got the tour programme and T-Shirt) I must have been one of the oldest in the audience - but I loved it. One memory still makes me smile - a couple of rows in front of me was a gentleman with his young and very excited daughter. The daughter bopped away all through FGTH's performance whilst her father read a broadsheet newspaper - priceless. Relax and take it easy. Chris

Thanks Steve - I agree.

The song that always makes me leave the room (this will probably get me branded as a know-nothing, Luddite, heretic who has no place in music) - is .............. Wait for it ........... American Pie by Don McLean In my opinion the song drags on for half a lifetime, goes nowhere, says even less and makes my toes curl. And i think Star Trekking is good fun - it gets people smiling and dancing. I await my formal expulsion from BassChat. Chris.

On hold - new home pending.

Evening all. As it says above - I have a JenArt soft cover for an Ashdown ABM 1x15 Combo that is surplus to requirements Internal dimensions are approx 2ft (600mm) x 2 ft (600mm) x 1ft (300mm). Free if you collect from NE Essex (CO15 area) or I'll dispatch to uk mainland at cost. Chris

RIP Mr P. Chris.

RIP Mr P. Chris.

I agree 100% with chris b (post #16) No. Chris C.

Any working bands out there in NE Essex looking for an experienced mature (alright over 60 but with own hair and teeth) bass player, quick learner with good quality gear, transport and BVs? Looking to play regularly. C.

Not necessarily the most famous but iconic for me: Summertime Blues (Eddie Cochrane or The Who) Knife Edge (Emerson Lake and Palmer) School Days (Stanley Clarke)

Afternoon all. Any recommendations for a reliable and economic amp repair facility in the Clacton-on-Sea area of NE Essex. Thanks. Chris
