  1. So, the postman has been. Unfortunately I wasn't around to reject it. Wish me luck...
  2. I can remember the first time I heard something that was 'Obviously' non-standard, unlike (for example) Take Five, or Golden Brown, which aren't particularly jarring. It was Down and Out by Genesis, and it confused the hell out of me.
  3. Mr. hackenbacker is right, I'm afraid.
  4. +1 for the Handbox WB-100. Give it room to breathe and it won’t let you down.
  5. Oh, found it. I didn't remove it, but TBH I would have done 😄 There's a perfectly reasonable request not to post about it 'cos we're all sick of seeing it. It doesn't really invite further discussion. Appreciate you might not agree., but...
  6. Yep, a great example of classic P. He's a lovely player.
  7. I always liked George Perry's tone on this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2e2kC-geMI
  8. That really is lovely.
  9. That's strange... it sold for $500,312, but the page has been taken down and there's no mention anywhere on their site.
  10. I have faith in Bob doing good stuff with some of the money. As an aside, the sale also includes all the songs on The Band's Music From Big Pink, so expect to hear The Weight all over the shop, too.
  11. ...has just sold for a few quid. https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/26172/lot/1055/
  12. Have we done this absolute crock yet?
  13. Why would he do that? It’s trad arr...?
  14. We're going to see a lot more of this, I think.
  15. ...but then we don’t know what he’s going to do with it.
  16. 'Hello... is that Universal Music Group?' 'It is. How can I help you?' 'It 's Mr. Apple here. We'd like to use The Times They Are a Changin' in our new launch campaign.' 'No problem. That's $15m..'
  17. Licensing, mainly.
  18. I completely understand why he's done it. He's not alone - Stevie Nicks just sold hers for $80m - but it still makes me a little sad. Then you have companies like Hipgnosis (not the Storm Thorgerson lot) snapping up entire catalogues for investors. Urgh.
  19. It's not Tier 1. It's its own thing entirely.
  20. This'll depress you all... my pal in the Isle of Man had a gig last night. The lucky so-and-so.
  21. Can you post an example..? That would be a start, I suppose.
  22. Dunno...
  23. Get it done, otherwise what’s the point of having it? That said, it’s a bound neck so take it to someone who knows what they’re doing.
