Fox on the Run - Sweet

I’ve been on the end of it. When I first started playing bass, I went to jams to get out and play and maybe pick up some contacts. I certainly wasn’t a musical noob, as I’d been playing guitar previously for nearly 30 years. At one jam, run by a local blues guitar hero, I heard a snide comment from one of the house band about non Fenders. As I was pretty much the only other person there at the time, with my Yamaha in tow, I can only assume it was aimed at me and my ‘starter’ bass. What an absolute tool 😠.

Go Wild in the Country - Bow Wow Wow

Paranoid - Sabbath

Widgeon on a Star - Rose Royce

Hard to go wrong there.

Fear of the Duck - Iron Maiden

Chicken Grease - D'Angelo

I’ve always found them very helpful, even when you don’t buy anything. Good to see they’re still providing a service that will keep folk coming back.

Happy? Dunno. I’m not sure if it’s down to the likes of me to be happy or sad about a particular company’s business model that hasn’t changed and has worked and still works for them. If they changed that model, then it might be open to comment and criticism, as in the recent changes to Sadowsky business model with Warwick. As things stand, as much as I’d like to own a Wal, I won’t, as I can’t justify having that amount of money tied up in an instrument, even before you get to the crazy waiting times. I have one bass that is rather premium (not Wal level money) and I wonder if I shouldn’t move that on and use the funds for something else. I like to own basses for sure, but I’m quite pragmatic about their worth if they’re not getting used much and I’m not working in a band where they might see some action.

One Scotch One Bourbon One Beer - George Thorogood

She’s Gavisgone - Hall & Oates

Yes they do and there’s an element of Hayman/Shergold in there too. I’d really like a Mullarkey, but the price has gone up considerably in the last year or so and that model is now north of £2k
