The best thing that ever happened to me was being in a band where the two guitarists were better than me and they said "sell the Fender Mustang and get a Jazz Bass". It doesn't work for everyone but I found my calling in the subterranean. Although if you can't play guitar because you got no riddem, you might as well work in a gas station...

Blue Monk - Thelonious Sphere Monk

Do you have any musician friends out there in Tenessee that know about stringed instruments? Pawn shops are great-if you know what a solid playable instrument is thatcan be set up proper. I mean, I've set up MANY instruments for nuthin'...just happy to give a novice a playable instrument before he did or bought something stupid. I know Covid situation is tricky right now, be careful, be smart, etc. But a used Squire, Ibanez, ESP, is gonna be for the most part, a quality instrument you can work with/learn on. If it feels good, that's the most important thing, if it plays in tune, the rest (look at the arsenals some of us have) will come later. Get yerself a playable instrument and take some lessons

Early Brand X. Love the period fretless.

Operator - Jim Croce

I think the U.S. should look in to The Moderator Party

Pretty hip

Well that was something.

A bucketful of odd. Man, I gotta remember that...

HA! Sleeper Alert! Great rendition, GREAT TUNE (TOON), Great Composer, the whole album is bitchin', and yes, I remember the first time it was on and watch it every year! And it's the only Christmas tune I know on Stick.

What's a Morrissey?...Oh. What's a Smiths?...

Great! Can't wait to hear more!

That is really cool. I can't wait to see it on MTV. I'll be watching on my triangular viewscreen.

Handel's Messiah. Love the period horns.

Only Yanks get to make fun of Trump. Wait. Live gigs back in the spring? (No, I haven't read pgs. 1-8)

I saw Gang Of Four for the Songs Of The Free tour at Art Stock's Royal Manor, New Jersey. I don't dance but I think I drank one beer that night because I was a dervish. Hugo and Sara Lee belted out a beat you could build a cathedral on, Andy Gill made sounds The Edge never thought of...the most psychedelic dance experience I ever had with no chemicals involved. The whole place just shook with dance. Yeah, I was slack-jawed. Jon King was at his peak too, he sounded like Bowie

Rock And Roll Stew - Traffic

Good Gosh. They would look ugly

My God, one of my most favorite songs ever! David does a nice job.

In the 80's we used Careering - Public Image Ltd. At the time we were playing a tune called Excuses. Sort of funk w/ a rapping lyric, kinda spoken word/poetry (white middle-class American chaps...you know)

Same here Bro., and from what I've read and heard on YouTube the guys@ Reaper made a ton of $ on another project they sold and offer Reaper really afffordable as a give-back to us blokes. All we need to to do is make the leap to learn it. 62 and can't catch a WAV...

I'm gonna add a couple, but when a band or musician TOTALLY TRANSFORMS a song you gotta give props so yeah, Jimi's version of Watchtower and Yes's version of America (and our boy Chris rips the snot into it) BTW, when asked about Jimi covering his songs, Dylan said he was suprised he hadn't done more, "they were all his anyway". My pics. Isley Bros.- Summer Breeze -Seals&Crofts. (I Know I'm) Losing You - Rare Earth Extended LP version w/ Killer guitar solo

Seven Steps to Heaven - Miles Davis

I have a smartphone. That I hate. I picked up a refurbished laptop for about $250 US. And I have Audacity installed, though I might go for Reaper. Tiny screens are tiny.

A joke. Gosh, you Brits. An American can't even get a Canadian Joke in edge-wise.
