Much of The Jam’s output didn’t feature guitar solos, or were pretty minimalist: Town Called Malice; David Watts; Going Underground; etc.

Legs - ZZ Top

Hunter And The Hunted - Simple Minds

Night Vision Binoculars - Passenger

No, we’re a band, not a flooring showroom. Unless he was after monogrammed trousers that make you sweat.

Rooster - AiC

Tie Your Mother Down - Queen

Bedlam in Belgian - AC/DC

Always noted and appreciated.

Here Comes The Bun - Beatles

This seems to be the current state of play in many threads, sadly.

Busted! Not limited to the size of the band, if I’m singing, I tend to be somewhere up front, if there’s room, as I can be quite animated. If I’m not singing, wherever works for the size of the staging area.

Except other bass players.

Ma Baker - Boney M

Copperhead Road - Steve Earle

Planet Rock during the day for me, albeit via the app. The app is a brilliant thing for me as it allows me skip those performers whose output drives me crazy. Then, Monday-Thursday, from 6-8pm, it’s Get It On, on Radio Scotland. This features a theme, where listeners message in their suggested tunes to the theme and the presenters (who are often more entertaining than the music) line up the tunes based on the amount of requests they receive, personal preference and whether the song has any offensive lyrics (not that they always succeed in applying this rule ). It’s not always gold but, more often than not, entertaining.

2-4-6-8 Motorway - Tom Robinson Band
