Little Fluffy Clouds - The Orb

Ship is sinking- Ye Banished Privateers

Bomber - Motorhead

Kick out the jams - MC5

Anne's Song - Faith No More

They are from his songs BUT they are tabs on the Internet and it's a well known fact that all tabs on the Internet are wrong. I've also realised that the unusually named Richard Boner of Husker Du plays in a very similar style but his songs are a bit slower so easier for me to work out myself

I've been looking up some Dinosaur Jr tabs and they don't seem to be showing that he's playing chords other than the occasional power chords.

Eighties- killing Joke

Two Little Boys - Rolf Harris

Too drunk to f**k - Dead Kennedys

I've seen them live and you're right, they're seriously loud. I've no idea how Lou or Jay still have any hearing. Those stacks of amps aren't just props, they're all on and cranked up loud.

I've recently started to appreciate a few ex rhythm guitarists who've changed to bassists. One of my favourites is Lou Barlow from Dinosaur Jr. I've tried to work out exactly how he's playing but can't quite get there. Any tips for getting close to this playing style? I think a lot of what he's playing is power chords but I'm not sure.

Dig up her bones - Misfits

Subcutaneous Phat - Desert Sessions

2H if I'm not mistaken.

Stuff the Turkey - Alien Sex Fiend

Range Rover beach - Taylor Hawkins

Definitely sounds left handed. That's clearly not a right handed tone, the sine waves are reversed.

A little bit ugly - Mighty mighty bosstones

Jesus Built My Hotrod - Ministry

Cheers Chris. The bass was better than expected and packaged to survive anything. Top man.

Has there ever been a major rock band who has released an album 30 years in to their career that's been considered their best work?

My second Stingray shaped instrument has just arrived, a Sterling Ra34. I didn't go looking for one to match my Ray35 but it looks great (I think it does) and it's in great condition

It's an extremely well played and well produced album but I personally found it disappointing

I was so excited for Californication when it was released. The only other RHCP albums I had were Mothers Milk and Blood Sugar Sex Magik so I expected more of the same. I was so disappointed when I got home from Woolworths and listened to it. I think it was about two years before I gave it a second listen and I was just as disappointed. It only ever got played after that when there was a young lady in my car who might not enjoy Slayer.
