The ‘Ray is scaled down certainly. I’ve not seen or used a Lionel but, if the pictures are anything to go by, they are smaller than the full sized versions too.

Great to see Kenny Pasarelli mentioned, I only know him through his work with Joe Walsh, but a name that has stuck in my consciousness. Murray & Johnstone, what a combo, add in Nigel Olsson and that's the backing band from heaven. What a player Dee was. Singers is a good addition to the conversation, Paul Rogers is right up there for me together with Paul Young (who cites Rogers as an influence). In terms of the way I actually sing, I'm influenced by all those, slightly warbly, baritones: Ferry, Sylvian, David Byrne, Richard Thompson, etc.

You have been on BC long enough to know that that is not how it works. Today’s lack of GAS is tomorrow’s spending spree.

Another Park, Another Sunday - The Doobie Brothers

Sneaking Sally Through The Alley - Robert Palmer (great bass riff by George Porter Jr).

This started out as a bit of fun and, as I went out so early last year, I didn’t give it much thought. The last couple of months have been weird, I don’t need anything, but forcing myself to not buy anything has made my teeth itch 😬! However, it has allowed me to focus on what I would like to acquire next, without disappearing down a, spur of the moment, rabbit hole. Will I sign up next year? Err, that would be a hard pass . Just… two… weeks… more .

Stomp! - The Brothers Johnson

Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant

Ballad Of Dwight Fry - Alice C

There’s No Lights on the Christmas Tree Mother, They’re Burning Big Louie Tonight - The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

The amount of time I spend on here weighed against the cost of being a supporting member makes it probably the most cost efficient thing I do. Think of all those pages of unread posts you can wade through when you return . Have a good break, @ped.

My Sweet Lord - George H

Greasy Kid’s Stuff - Steve Vai

One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer - George Thorogood.

Earl’s A Winger - Richard Digance

I like basstheworld, it really doesn’t take itself seriously in the slightest. However, their demos are always good.
