  1. I have a range: Intent, serious muso Slightly bemused (smelling own fart) The David Gilmour pout or just been goosed by someone out of shot (this is a favourite look it seems).
  2. That’s the look that’s thinking, “I’ve got to load this dirty great rig back into the car soon and I bet these buggers will suddenly be very busy with other things or nowhere to be seen,” oh, woe is me.
  3. That’s a lovely post, but it’s the comment at the bottom that made me well up. 😢
  4. I'd use it like an amp and put it at the end of the signal chain. However, if using just as a dirt box, convention dictates that it be at the front. FWIW, personally, I shove 2 fingers up to that and put my VTDI (only used for a little grind, occasionally) at the end of the FX chain, just before the amp, so I can have everything going out of the DI, if required. In short, put it where you want, it's your sound.
  5. A bunch of chums and I did a cover of Peter Gabriel's In Your Eyes during the days of covid. We made a video and uploaded it to YouTube. We all enjoyed the process so much, we decided to have a go at Don't Give Up. We did the recording OK, but by the time it came to organise a video, the lockdowns had ended and everyone in the group was starting to get busy again, so the video never happened. This meant that the recording is just sitting around on hard drives doing nothing. Therefore, today, I decided it was time to rectify that and uploaded it to Soundcloud. Here it is for your aural perusal...
  6. You could drop a G&L pickup in it, although that is probably covering the same ground.
  7. Just read about this on the BBC. Another really influential bass player gone within a week. People tend to mostly associate The Smiths with Morrissey & Marr, but AR was such a big part of the sound too.
  8. Two gigs in the space of a week for me! Tonight was Rich Hall in Birnam. He was both very, very funny and very clever. The second half was musical fun, with C&W as the basis; highly recommended.
  9. Games Without Frontiers - Peter Gabriel
  10. Belfast Polka - Richard Thompson
  11. You May Be Right - Billy Joel
  12. My Generation - The Who
  13. Bruce Thomas gets an awful lot of love, quite rightly, here and is always associated with the P bass. However, I just found this image, whilst searching for info on another player. Good on yer, Bruce.
  14. Ooh, er, Mrs!
  15. Novel, but I understand, from those in the know, that the strap over the front of the upper, rear bout, alleviates the problem somewhat.
  16. Hungry Like The Wolf - DD
  17. As a stand alone song Chris Cornell wins for me. I remember seeing Casino Royale at the cinema and being blown away by the title song and realising it was CC. My other votes (I had 3) went to the 2 OHMSS options because of the marvellous JB strings.
  18. Today I shall play along to Babooshka as a tribute.
  19. OHMSS and YOLT are very similar.
  20. It’s John Barry at his stylistic best. I like the way David Arnold used certain JB motifs, when he took the musical reins. You Know My Name is full of JB type horn arrangements and lines.
