Yeah , he did 20th Century Blues album with Trower, and he's also worked with some well known players - Phil Manzanera, Jan Akkerman, Tina Turner, Bryan Ferry. I think he produces a lot as well as bass playing. Also play keys
Anyone remember Night Of The Guitars from waaaaaaaaaaaay back in th 80's ?
I watched the whole show and was mightily impressed with bass player Livingstone Brown, playing here in this vid with the late Pete Haycock ( RIP ) formerly of the Climax Blues Band
Check L B's playing on this track of Pete's - Dr Brown I Presume - wonderful feel
MK beats all in terms of number of roundabouts, and i admit i've been lost there because every street looks like a clone of all the others, but for sheer madness,
Swindon takes the biscuit. It's called the Magic Roundabout because it's sheer magic if you can get through it
According to history, original logos were a G in a circle with Goodfellow underneath. Also there was a G in a round circle with Handcrafted England beneath.
Not sure which was earlier or which was later
I think they retained the logo when Lowden took over in 87 till BG left and started Nightingale Guitars. The logo changed i think, when BG left Lowden/GB, but i've never seen a Goodfellow of any era with a logo like that BJ Goodfellow.
That finish looks utter sh!te too - not very Goodfellow at all
I think i would avoid commissioning a bass from them if that's the kind of customer service you get. Any handbuilt bass could have a problem, but its how it's dealt with that is just as important.
I would only really trust the big players on Basschat for a custom build. Andy or Alan - and Christine if she ever went for commissions
The photo above is similar to how Brand X god Percy Jones started with fretless. I believe he had an old ( Gretsch ? ) and ripped out the frets from under the G string only.
He can be heard on 1 or 2 tracks i believe, on the earliest album. The track Running On Three springs to mind
