fleabag

Another slapper. I managed 3 seconds

No probs pst. Shame they never did more. The band split but did other things separately. Pal Dennis married a French woman and shuffled off to live in France about 25 or 30 years ago. Frank the drummer took up Jazz guitar, and Jerry the bassman is still around playing in some mediocre bands that he's far too good for

Had to get it out of the laundry basket, hence the creases

Those graphics look like they were done by a comic book artist, i must admit.

She's not actually real, so probably not

Yup, i guess its pretty rare. They weren't famous, and only made the one album

You mean a search to buy it ? That may be tricky, but the link in my post is the whole album anyway

My mate Jerry. This is his band Red, back in the 80's. Keyboardist at rehearsals was ex Tom Robinson member Mark Ambler, though he never made it on the album. He was bit of a prat So, i used to go to rehearsals for this album with Jerry, and gitwrist Dennis, because we shared a huge house with more musos at the time, in Oxford. I loved his playing so much i was influenced by him a lot to take up the bass, even though i was a drummer at the time. Jerry played fretted and fretless Rick 4001's at the time, so i assume the bass on this album was one of his Ricks The whole album is fabulous, though an aquired taste. Not for everyone, but loved it and still have it on vinyl, but would really like it transferred at some point

I'm of the philosophy that they screwed you over, so you can take a wild stab at my answer. Unless you make a full time living at playing, then gigging under any circumstances doesnt compute.

Yes. Looks ok. The knobs alone would be worth nearly the £10 that the winning bidder paid

Somewhere to sit and ponder , though

It used to be that your negs would stay, as long as it wasnt insulting e.g " the w@nker never sent the goods ' or similar stuff, and although some of it may have been accurate, they could have the whole thing removed because of the w@nker bit. But it seems now that feedback is a joke. Especially since the great idea by Nutbay big wigs many years back, deciding you cant leave a buyer any neg feedback. You now dont know which buyers are complete donkey butts, and there's a plenty of them out there Over 17 years on Ebay, i've bumped into so many richards that i opened a 2nd account, and if they pizzed me around, i used to wait till they had some stuff sale, and bid on it, then not bother paying so it messed them up. See how they liked a taste of their own meds.

My pal asked Siri if she was single, and she said the question was inappropriate

One has to be old to remember this shizzle, but before The Robin Trower band kicked off, Dewar was bassing for LULU , ( old folk here will remember her ) and also Stone The Crows ( again...old folk will remember them ) Trower himself was the guitarist in Procol Harem for a while ( old folk will remember them ) James sadly died at the silly age of 59 in 2002 of a stroke after years of disability resulting from a rare medical condition

Anyone remember James Dewar ?

Very good and very Larson. I think the above cartoonist ripped this off Larson's cartoon ' What We Say To Dogs hear ' and ' What Dogs Hear ' The guy above and below both wear identical glasses.

Thanks gurus ...brilliant

I think white folk are sh!t scared of everything these days. Do it.

You're right about some people hate slap bass Doc, because i'm one of those, but when Level 42 hit the streets, it seemed absolutley right and i found myself falling in love with MK's technique. You have no worries pal. Your playing AND singing is top notch. Playing a bass and singing is an art in itself, and even harder when using such a bass technique as MK's. The whole band sound 100% and i'm sure everyone wishes you the best of luck. Once you get noticed, which you will, there'll be no shortage of work, i guarantee Carry on sir.

Its pretty shocking isnt it. Even the only photo he could be bothered to take is useless There's this coven of plebians who think they have no need to bother, because their stuff will sell itself, i guess.

This guy has nailed it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Trace-Elliot-GP12SMX-bass-amp-with-410-cab/293307670550?hash=item444a7fe016:g:apMAAOSw6INdvCsU
