Eyes Waterfalling - Level 42

Nice one, Phil. I will definitely check it out. Thanks for sharing.

Flightcase + PB300 here. I’ve previously owned a Cub and a Bass Buddy. Yeah, I’m a fanboy.

Thank heavens I’ve moved. That is only a leisurely 45 minute drive from the former Ez Towers. I reckon there’s a few grand to be added just yet.

Iron Man - Sabbath.

Brontosaurus - The Move

Suck My Kiss - RHCP

Sharp Dressed Man - ZZ Top

Prices for new Gibsons and US EBMMs seems to be ridiculous these days. It is reported that new guitar sales are an an all time high, so I’m not sure folk are selling off in massive numbers. With that in mind, I’d say it’s probably not the best time. I could be talking out of my rear end of course.

Take It Off The Top - The Dixie Dregs

Shout At The Devil - Motley Crüe

Good call @Jean-Luc Pickguard.

Hold The Line - Toto

We’re just moving into a new house. It’s not a dream house as such, but we like it and, despite wanting to downsize, it’s bigger than our last house. Lady Ez will have a room for her office and I’ll have a full sized room for my music (in the last house, it was a very small box room). Whilst I’ll have the vast majority of my musical stuff in ‘my’ room, I want to have a guitar and maybe a bass in one of the living rooms. In an ideal world, I’ll finally get a DB/EUB and that will certainly live downstairs in one of the living rooms (Lady Ez does like the idea of them as a piece of furniture, so it’ll need to be a proper DB or an EUB with one of those small bodies).

No, that’s a feat of heroism.

Although it seems counter intuitive, being busier during solos works. Check out Jack Bruce during Crossroads or Tommy Shannon during Shotgun Blues (IIRC). There’s also the tritone/chord option. Martin Turner does some some full on, Quo type boogie on Blindeye.

She’s Like The Wind - Patrick Swayze

Robert Palmer covered Toots & The Maytals' Pressure Drop

Onion of the Snake - Duran Duran

Come Together - The Who

Holiday - Madonna

Andy Summers, The Edge, Johnny Marr, etc, all do something different from the shredders, which I always found refreshing. Their standpoint that it’s easy (and I take issue with that) fails to take into account they did it first, at least on a world stage. It takes so much more rhythmical awareness to achieve their effects drenched sound than just widdling over the Lydian mode. It’s the equivalent of looking at a Picasso or Mondrian and saying, “I could’ve done that.” Well, you didn’t, did you?

Even without the footie kit.

Broken Wings - Mr Mister

Hole Hearted - Exteme
