You, Sir, are bang on...

I didn't say I preferred pre-Relayer Yes, nor with-Gabriel Genesis, I just said I hadn't listened to them, I may well listen to these in the future and might possibly like them, which is specifically why I didn't say I preferred them.

Personal taste, exactly, the answer to most threads on BC. I heard DSOTM first and yet I have listened to WYWH more over the years, it's just personal preference. I never listened to anything by Yes after Relayer, never listened to any Genesis after Peter Gabriel left and I have never knowingly heard a track, let alone an album, by Rush.

It was forwarded to me by the man who introduced me to Kraftwerk in 1975.

Get in...

Or just different taste. Dark Side is undoubtedly a brilliant masterpiece yet I prefer WYWH.

It really does, thanks so much for this. 👍

This morning, while I was cleaning both my Rob Allen Mice, it occurred to me that there is no page on BC (to my knowledge) purely for the appreciation of Rob Allen's beautiful guitars, so here it is. I bought the fretted Mouse earlier this year and I finally got a chance a fortnight ago to get it up to Guitar Technical Services for a full set up. Having found a few problems with it we discussed (via email) the frets. Now RA uses mandolin fret wire on the Mouse which is why he recommends on his site not to use any strings other than La Bella 760n. I had always wondered what the Mouse would sound like with other strings so after some email chat I decided to have the Mouse re-fretted with standard frets which opens up a whole world of string choices. Anyway enough waffle, here are my two (fnar) show us your Rob Allen basses...

Yngwie Malmsteen cannot pronounce the word biscuits.

If so may I offer up Django Reinhardt‘s inability to walk past a graveyard without popping in to clear up a bit, an activity that could take up to fourteen hours.

That, Sir, is a doozie.

Yes... or no.

Yes, but you are in Sterling company.

I am trying to source an original Fender Telecaster Deluxe, can anyone on here point in me in the direction of a reputable source for such a guitar?

Stand and deliver, your money for my bass!

Third is my favourite too.

Me too, despite seeing them a couple of times. Took me many years to get into them but can’t get enough now!

Life?

It’s certainly too early in the morning for a tremendous climax.
