And even then at that point he was Singing and playing Piano with Steely Dan 76 /77

Only One id Dump...that would be Mustang Sally.

It seems that Mark Bass have stopped producing these Strings.Anyone know if anywhere still has them.They are a great Flatwound string and the tone is somewhere between Rounds,and maybe Labella flats.

We also never had snowflakes either i can remember .

Dreadlock holiday I thought was losely based on some real life events that Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman experienced in Jamiaca,there was no such thing as being Politically Incorrect in those days.

Thanks ill have a look at one of these

Both replies taken on Board tanks for the reply, will give these a go .

Ah you're all thinking, "Martha Reeves and the Vandellas" but it's not about the song or about getting married , its about my lazy third Finger left Hand. Sounds like a newbie question ,maybe it is ,I've only been playing seven years. Anyway my problem is the aforesaid finger not doing as I want it to, and it never has since I've been playing, so as far as covering four frets is concerned with four fingers ,I find this impossible so I just shift over and use another finger. Now it's no biggie but as I'm advancing I think as a Player maybe I should go all out and try and train this finger to do what my Brain is trying to tell it to do because it just won't move. So to you Knowledgeable players out there...Does anyone have any suggestions to get this lazy finger working.?

i got asked to play any Irish song, so we played Hit me with your rhythm stick, the guy said that's not an Irish song ,so i changed the words to ..Hit me with your shovel Mick ,they loved it😂

Ditto

For me the Urine boiling tune of the century has to ...We Built this City on Rock N Roll, Don't ask me why i don't know I just despise the thing. I will never ever play it even for a someone's last Rolo.

Most bass players cant play it ,is that why you hate it .I love btw but cant play for it for Toffee.

Good luck this time.

Ah ok it sounds like the Package didnt leave Germany then. Here's a timeline and tracking info from both Thomann and DHL in Respect of my Bass purchase from them.

Not really you are given tracking info from Thomann by email when the goods have been collected from their warehouse in Germany,admittedly no tracking info available when the package is on the Plane,but it is recorded when the package arrives at the UK and after custom clearance which is when tracking is available from then on.?Did you get any tracking info after the aformentioned procedure.?

Yeah know what you mean,ill have to see if i can get past that in the flesh.

The Sire arrived today ,had to see what all the fuss was about,first impressions are shes definitely a looker but will she be a keeper,our date will start in 5 mins when ive set her up . She'll have to go some some to push my P aside. We'll see .

I'm torn between two loves and don't know which one to choose, anybody help me out

I get that, i was a Coal Miner for 12 odd years late 70s and into the 80s and used to get all sorts of aches and pains,in my hands.If was still doing a Job like that now I don't think i'd be able to play the Bass guitar

Do you clench on your sleep? Your hands that is...Not that i'm aware of,unless the trouble and strife has noticed anything.

Been practising and playing quite heavily recently in fact i was at it until 1 am this morning, somewhere the region of 8 hrs playing trying to learn a set list for a 60s rock n Roll outfit I'm about to be part of.Anyway woke up in night with Pins n Needles in both Hands.Never had this before,Anyone one else had it ?

hope you get it soon

You can't just buy a Guitar like buying a T-shirt, homework has to be done, in fact in my book that applies to most things.I made an error just the other week not a Guitar but a Lawnmower. My trusty Bosch Mower which i have had for 15 years finally gave up the ghost. I naturally thought it's another Bosch Mower for me,so i bought on line at B&Q for collection,got it home and upon closer inspection it was flimsy with thinner plastic, difficult to set the blade height,the grass box came in two pieces with two clips which kept coming undone rendering the thing useless.Anyway gave it a run out and thought this is nothing like the original one,went to alter the blade height and trapped a finger nearly ripping my finger end off after which i began to see red, i felt like John Cleese in Faulty Towers after his Austin Maxi broke down and he thrashed it with a Tree Branch,i would have done the same had their been a branch handy.A bit more product knowledge revealed that the thing was made in China with a Bosch badge on the side of it,the thing went straight back to B&Q.Funnily enough even the staff agreed it was a load of TAT in comparison to the original Bosch ones.
