Sheila E - fab. Were we even discussing her at band rehearsals this evening. Class indeed

Yeah good prog. But i am a fan of SC's tubbing. Tight as a Mallards chuff. Listen to The Police - Next To You

I only know that i wouldnt join the pay band. That music is all over the place. There's absolutely no genre to speak of, unlike your other band of electric pop, which you will know exactly what you're gonna get. What type of audience is the pay band trying to please ..or attract ?

I love the A/E bass , i just dont know much about them. The HMT above seems to have a very different headstock to the A/E

This is an HMT https://www.elderly.com/fender-hmt-late-1980-s-early-90-s.htm

It's hard to imagine just how huge that neck is, front to back. That thing is like a broken pencil. Pointless

The only famous chaps i saw before they were famous were Jakko Jakszyk and Joe Jackson. Not even sure if their bands stayed together, so it maybe just Jakko and Joe himself that became famous. Anyways, myself and some buddies wandered into a pub in Gosport ( i used to live in {Portsmouth ) and there was a great band on, called Arms and Legs. We didnt know they were playing at the time, just a lucky shot And the same with Jakkos band back in the day. I was living in Oxford after Portsmouth ( and Southsea as well ) and used to go to The Corn Dolly a lot, in Oxford. There was a band playing called The 64 Spoons. Strange crew .. but entertaining

Billy Preston ! Dammit another of my faves i forgot. And Nicky Hopkins Listen to the awesome keys on the Stones " Goats Head Soup " Both Hopkins and Preston were magic

Interesting to see you're using a Warman UK built MM clone. I have one in my accessories draw that i fitted to one of the Vintage MM basses. The used a Wilkinson, IIRC. I dumped it in favour of the Warman, and it was way better. When i sold the bass , i put the Wilky back in and kept the Warman for a later project, which hasn't happened. Booo

Sometime in the 80's

OOOh yea Rod Argent. Massive

.. and then kick the guitards butt

Brilliant - our band does a cover of that very Lamarr cover of Curtis Mayfield

Never drink out of an empty glass

Oooh, and a bit of funk, and a bit of jazzy funk and a smidge of prog ( i hear people spitting ). You forgot those mr Bolo

The song, you must serve, young Luke

Finding a chit hot drummer, and what a miracle it is when one turns up. Really tigthens up your playing, especially if you thought you were on the ball beforehand, with lesser drummists A good drummer will expose sloppy playing ( so i discovered many moons ago )

I doze off if someone speaks to me about disposable chart pap, rap, metal, classic rock, punk, brit poop, c+w , trad blues, big band , trad jazz, reggae As you can see, i just dont like music

Jon Lord !!

ooh good shot. But tell the sneaky mofo why.

Either seem an acquired taste

Prefer skateboards to pencils or clothes pegs
