[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1499289977' post='3330610'] This is me playing G# all the time and definitely no-one noticed [/quote] Very good. Try playing G and see if anyone notices!

As I hear it on the original version, Bowie's harmonica playing is a little ragged and his semitone down bend G# to G is not always wholly accurate ... but hey, it's rock 'n' roll ... and the blues scale G natural is only a passing note anyway ... and little variations are fine like EEEEAG ...and if someone played G# occasionally most people ain't going to notice.

The Jean Genie and the G is natural not sharp.

Q1: Why can't a singer sing a song in a particular key? A: Because the song in that key doesn't suit the range of the singer's voice - and while the range of a singer's voice can be extended with practice, it is also limited by physiology. Q2: Why can't a guitarist play in, for example, the key of Eb? A: Because guitarist hasn't bothered to learn all the chords and their inversions.

Sold Liam some used strings, neat and tidy business.

I think BigRedX has a couple of those basses by GUS.

My sister's granddaughter (age 8), i.e. my great-niece, does everything left-handed and/or left-footed. On my advice they got her a left-handed guitar ... ... which she insists on playing right-handed.

Congratulations.

What stood out for me was the perfection of Rogers' rhythm playing. As for the bass, I thought that was also pretty much nailed. Indeed, the whole thing kept tight and quite straightforward was fantastic. But Rogers' guitar holds it all together.

Mine came within a few days but, as above, they had just finished a batch and I was lucky.

No actual brothers - Scott Engel, John Maus, Gary Leeds.. Lead vocalist Scott Walker, n[size=4]é[/size] Engel, was a bassist by profession but by all accounts the bassist on 'No Regrets' is Darryl Runswick. Scott Walker .... Daryl Runswick ....
