  1. Wow! That is unbelievably brilliant.. One of the biggest songs ever, amazing band and choir making the most incredible sound, and as if that weren't enough, having to perform it in front of Zeppelin themselves.. But she absolutely smashes it.. Wow! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
  2. Couldn't agree more with you both about Imelda May.. I remember seeing that performance on Jools a few years back and it was absolutely spellbinding! We were lucky enough too get to see her 7 months later at the Latitude Festival and she was brilliant, as was her band. But as vocalists go from around this part of the world in this era, she's right up there IMHO.
  3. Merry Christmas Folks! Great thread. πŸ‘πŸ˜Š Thought I'd add a few of my favourite singers/singing for you... Can't believe this man hasn't been mentioned yet... No words, just pure emotion and some of the most beautiful chords ever IMHO... And some gorgeous harmonies to finish with... Have a fab Xmas day!
  4. Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to all of my Basschat friends - hope you manage to enjoy the festive season wherever you are! πŸŽ„πŸŽπŸ₯‚πŸ·πŸΊπŸ˜Š

      Thanks Nik, hope we'll meet up sometime! πŸ™‚

  5. I haven't done any of the research on it like you have Jack, but my sense of it has always been that Macca has had a raw deal over the years from the mainly pro-Lennon press.. Something that took on an even more zealous edge after Lennon was assassinated.. Come the day that Macca is no longer here, I suspect that the history of it all will get rewritten more fairly and Macca's unbelievablely brilliant contribution to music / culture over the last 60 years will finally get the proper recognition it - and he - deserves.
  6. Fabulous - that's a 'must see' movie for 2021!! Thanks for sharing... πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  7. ... be an archaeologist. And given how antiquated, heavy and out of date some of my bass gear is, I'd say I've pretty much almost achieved my youthful goal! 😁
  8. Bass sounds great - very cool bass lines too! 😊 GLWTS
  9. That's a fantastic rig at an amazing price!! GLWTS
  10. Have to agree with posts above, that is a really beautiful bass! 😊 GLWTS
  11. πŸ˜³πŸ€” Was that the illegitimate son of Leo Fender, Jim Marshall and Mr & Mrs Acoustic talking?
  12. The name 'Bergantino' has suddenly taken on a weird and slightly disconcerting Mafiosa connection.. πŸ™„ 😁
  13. That sounds great! Nice playing too.. 😊 GLWTS
  14. πŸ€” Hmmm.. Let me get this straight. The mother of all bass cabs is your baby? That's a wierd one, right? 😁
  15. Me too. Of course, it's all subjective BS anyway...
  16. +1 Couldn't agree more @MGBrown Over the last 14 or so years on Basschat (and Bass world before it) @owen has always 'given good ad', or should I say 'given very, very good ad'.. He also happens to sell some of the most exquisite gear on here from time to time and is one of Basschat's finest patrons to boot! 😁 GLWTS..
  17. I'm good thanks Pawel - glad to hear you're all good too! πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  18. He's really good.. They're really good! Hope you're keeping well, Pawel?
  19. I'm sure this has been said already (and I'm very late to this thread admittedly), but what is Gear Abstinence exactly? I mean, is there a 'gear abstinence bosun' that scientists at CERN are actively looking for? Or a team of mathematicians trying to solve the 'gear abstinence conundrum' hoping to win the Nobel maths prize for it.. Something a bit like this one maybe?.. which on balance, sounds quite close to gear abstinence actually .. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yang–Mills_existence_and_mass_gap I mean, when I saw the 'it's the end of the world, help, the Apocalypse is coming! ' movie Deep Impact some years back, there were a few bass players in the final scenes studiously discussing the relative merits of a lightweight bass cab one of them had just bought, musing obliviously about the deep impact such an uber-lightweight cab that costs x thousand quid yet weighs less than - 500 nanograms blah, blah, blah would create in a crappy pub venue with a hollow stage and a big bass trap... πŸ€”πŸ˜‰πŸ˜
  20. Lovely stuff @PawelG - is that your new band? 😁
