Who's knocking other musicians..?

He explained why in his post.

You're looking for the 'START NEW TOPIC' button :-)

I don't think everyone's missing the point.

But y'know, if only The Beatles had paid more attention to their critics. They might have ended up more than a minor footnote in history.

That stuff looks a bit like regular modern-day pepperoni..?

Incidentally...

Monitors? IEMs? Nah. DOn't need 'em.

Just as well you added that caveat, otherwise the previous poster might have felt very hurt.

For a long time Bernard Purdie has claimed he overdubbed a number of Ringo's parts. I doubt he'd peddle that guff if he didn't rate his playing...!

I disagree with most of what you say, but will concede that George was a.. lazy guitarist. The rooftop concert. The 'All You Need Is Love' solo. Even McCartney and Lennon eclipse him at the end of the Abbey Road medley. But he was a bit off-the-wall, influenced the direction of the band and wrote handful of classics. I strongly disagree re: Ringo. Even Bernard Purdie rates him enough to try to steal his credit. McCartney's 'twee' stuff often has a bit of a sinister undercurrent which appeals to me, and I have no problems with Lennon's voice.

You do, although it ain't what it used to be. And the feedback system is now a nonsense.

OMG that's beautiful. I need it in my life.

Aye, if only more people had listened to me....

It’s maybe a discussion that needs its own thread, but my view is that stickies should be reserved for important housekeeping stuff, whereas content should reflect the activity of the forum. Besides, sticky blindness is a thing - people just skip over them. Again, just my view. And apologies for the derail :-)

No, your terminology is spot-on. Stickies aren't really popular any more, 'cos people are used to searching for stuff.

Welcome, Hal!

It is a great thread. Stickies are bit passé though :-)

Crackers.

Sounds to me like: Pedal on the G End with G Bb C G SOLO: Bb G# Eb STEP DOWN: Bb > G# > G REST OF THE SOLO: G F C BACK INTO CHORUS Hope this helps...

Because he started something new, maybe?

Loads of admiration for the guy. I've read his biog, watched clips of him play with my mouth agape, wandered how marvelous it must have been to be in his presence, acknowledged his influence, and understood that he changed the world of bass playing.... ...but I don't really like any of his tunes. Also, Dry Cleaner from Des Moines would have been better through Jamerson's taste filter. IMO, obviously.

There's a couple of options with the Marus one, neither of which involve cartoon fingers :-)
