  1. Ah yes. Fantastic songwriter.
  2. And Richard Thompson, vocally more than the guitar.
  3. Thread search not working very well here at the moment. The software used for this forum sometimes does a full index rebuild which can wreck the search facility for a day.
  4. There is - buy a copy made before they trademarked the shape. Rickenbacker may not like it, but it is legal. You can't make something retrospectively illegal all Rickenback can do legally is stop people selling them as copies.
  5. @stewblack by a short nose from @wateroftyne This wonderful version with Trevor Burton on bass and (strangely) no Richard Tandy keyboards so sounding very different to the single. Burton was originally guitarist, but after Ace Kefford left he shared bass duties with Carl Wayne. All before Jeff Lynne joined.
  6. GETTING COLD! Flowers in the Rain was very, very close!
  7. Oh so close - but no sitar cigar. 🙂 🍇🥛
  8. In the UK we have 'passing off' which is selling goods or services giving the customer the impression they are someone else's. I can't see Dean being copped for that, but the laws in the USA are different and I can't claim to understand their subtleties. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passing_off
  9. OK, Stew's guess gets the genre right even if the Goodies are a pastiche. The bassline was as played on Top of the Pops by someone better known as a guitarist and linked with the Pink Fairies...
  10. I'll take the Voodoo Octave if it's still going?
  11. Me I think! This will keep you for a bit (I hope...) The original song doesn't have an easily recognisable bassline... but this is what they played live. Sorry it's not to fluent, I had to relearn it!
  12. No probs! I've gone and got one now anyway!
  13. And there we have it 🙂 Pumped up kicks, Foster the People...
  14. Tsk! I meant I'm waiting for one I can actually identify... and I have made my contribution!
  15. I'm just waiting for someone to post 'Peaches'...
  16. Ah! The OP can edit a thread title by clicking edit on the first post.
  17. I'm confused? You're selling for £450 but say the new price is £425? I'm assuming that I'm missing something...
  18. Hmm. When did he drop the 'W.'? I haven't seen it used for decades!
  19. I don't recognise it... but I bet you're using a compressor!
  20. True, it's acting as a Faraday shield. It's effectiveness is dependent on the 'skin depth'. Copper's skin depth is considerably less than that of aluminium at any given frequency BUT for both metals it is thicker than the sort of foil used at 50Hz, so they will perform equally well. The difference does matter if you are shielding against radio frequencies.
  21. Well you're the first to actually name it, get your track up!
  22. I'm going out, but if thyour answer fits @lowdown's clue, it's right...
