  1. I struggled with this because there were so many asongs that I have no recollection of at all. Then I realised it was the US charts. ๐Ÿ™„ For most Basschatters, this may be more relevant: 01 Archies Sugar Sugar 02 Beatles With Billy Preston Get Back 03 The Rolling Stones Honky Tonk Women 04 Peter Sarstedt Where Do You Go To (My Lovely) 05 Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg Je T'Aime... Moi Non Plus 06 Marvin Gaye I Heard It Through The Grapevine 07 Creedence Clearwater Revival Bad Moon Rising 08 Fleetwood Mac Albatross 09 Frank Sinatra My Way 10 Bobbie Gentry I'll Never Fall In Love Again 11 Dean Martin Gentle On My Mind 12 Zager & Evans In The Year 2525 13 Elvis Presley In The Ghetto 14 Marmalade Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da 15 The Beatles The Ballad Of John And Yoko 16 Tommy Roe Dizzy 17 Robin Gibb Saved By The Bell 18 Thunderclap Newman Something In The Air 19 Mary Hopkin Goodbye 20 Fleetwood Mac Oh Well 21 Desmond Dekker & The Aces The Israelites 22 Kenny Rogers & The First Edition Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town 23 Donald Peers Please Don't Go 24 The Bee Gees Don't Forget To Remember 25 Plastic Ono Band Give Peace A Chance 26 Fleetwood Mac Man Of The World 27 Amen Corner (If Paradise Is) Half As Nice 28 Lou Christie I'm Gonna Make You Mine 29 Karen Young Nobody's Child 30 The Scaffold Lily The Pink 31 Joe Dolan Make Me An Island 32 The Move Blackberry Way 33 Rolf Harris Two Little Boys 34 The Tremeloes (Call Me) Number One 35 Stevie Wonder My Cherie Amour 36 The Edwin Hawkins Singers Oh Happy Day 37 Booker T & The MGs Time Is Tight 38 Stevie Wonder For Once In My Life 39 Johnny Cash A Boy Named Sue 40 Herman's Hermits My Sentimental Friend 41 The Hollies He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother 42 Oliver Good Morning Starshine 43 Marvin GayeT oo Busy Thinking 'Bout My Baby 44 Lulu Boom Bang-A-Bang 45 Clodagh Rodgers Come Back And Shake Me 46 Stevie Wonder Yester-Me Yester-You Yesterday 47 The Who Pinball Wizard 48 Engelbert Humperdinck The Way It Used To Be 49 Cilla Black Surround Yourself With Sorrow 50 Max Romeo Wet Dream
  2. His guitar player for several years in the late 60s/early 70s was the pre-Police Andy Summers.
  3. They could no longer see the point ...
  4. No older brother, I guess? Mine was nearly three years older than me, so I grew up listening (on a Dansette) to the Beatles and the Stones and the Monkees.
  5. Dammit! It wasn't DARTmoor, it was EXmoor, that's why you didn't see me. I've just remembered walking down into the Doone Valley, which would have been a mite challenging from Dartmoor. Hey, cut me some slack ... it was over 50 years ago.
  6. We were WAY more impressed by the sheep skulls ... not something we ever saw on Guernsey, and of course we were doing Lord Of The Flies as a set book at school. ๐Ÿ™„
  7. 'Twas 1969.
  8. Chickenshack were (arguably) the second best blues band in the UK. On piano they had Christine Perfect, who later married John McVie and we all know how that turned out ...
  9. I actually spent that weekend at Scout Camp on Dartmoor ...
  10. I was doing fine until I got to "bowing and be able to read music". Ah well ... onwards and upwards.

  12. Here you go ... 100% cotton but NOT colourfast, truly Godawful design, dodgy-looking website but they take PayPal. All you need now is a Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute act. http://country-cowboy.com/en/cowboys/192-chemise-h-rebel.html
  13. In all fairness, guys, neither of you stipulated QUALITY! ๐Ÿ˜‚

  15. I take lead vocals on about a quarter of the songs for my covers band ... does that give me 'lead singer syndrome'? I rather think not. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  16. If I didn't already have the SK (and a few others ๐Ÿ™„) I'd be all over this. GLWTS
  17. Google Maps gives me 97 minutes by the fastest route. Please let me know if you re-locate to, say, NW London. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  18. Best ad on here in a long time. Good luck, and I hope a Basschatter can step in. I'd put a smiley/emoticon thingy here, but the current selection is so childish that it would just be embarrassing.
  19. There's still room on there for a couple of PAR cans and a Zoom Q2n 4K. Just saying ...
  20. Blimey Mick, how the hell would I remember? ๐Ÿคฃ
  21. Can I just say how much I liked the "Linkshander" inscription? ๐Ÿ™‚
  22. Big place, London. You'll more likely get a response if you tell us where in London you are based.
  23. When you need a P, there's no point trying to resist. Best get it over with ... you'll feel much better.
  24. You've not been to one of my gigs then?
