They're his songs, innit.

He didn't go because he's literally done with DS.

I think they're La Bellas.

I'm a huge fan (as you can probably tell) but I walked out of the OES gig at Gateshead Stadium. I was bored to tears.

It's probably easier if you just name the 5 for 6 Straits songs you do like, and then give it a rest for a bit 😄

You can hear bits of the chorus in the middle eight of Love Over Gold. Incidentally, the band on Tina's version is Dire Straits, but with Jeff Beck instead of MK.

Industrial Disease is a masterpiece. The lyrics are incredible. And the chorus is an instrumental... not exactly commercial gold-dust. I suspect you just don't like songs with cheesy organ noises 🙂

You mean the shamelessly commercial album with The Man’s Too Strong, Brothers in Arms and Why Worry on it..?

I was supposed to be in the band for that, but plans changed...

That's a great clip, and the last line is a killer 😄

These songs are homages to the stuff he loves, I think.

He's probably made a few million quid off that filler.

While we're on DS endings, here's what I reckon is one of their most under-appreciated songs, with another great ending.

MK has always worn his influences on his sleeve. JJ could never have written something like Telegraph Road.

So far - fantastic. I've done some tracking this afternoon and the client is really happy. No problems at all. Straight into my Macbook from the DI on my head, and all good to go. I used a Focusrite iTrack Solo previously which was fine, but a few years old. I thought I'd go the Audient route 'cos the Eo 4 has two inputs for only a tenner more than the Scarlett Solo. It seems to handle a hotter signal, and it’s much richer and fuller. I think I'd probably prefer the build quality of the Focusrite - there's a lot of (good quality) plastic on this, but that's the only real downside I can see. Here's a little jam I recorded this afternoon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6cFE-k64GM

...for the Phil Collins version, maybe 🙂 John Giblin straightened the part right out.

I have to confess I didn’t get through the whole thing.

Which version? Phil's and the Supremes are very different in feel and note choice.

I’ve got an Evo 4 arriving tomorrow. Looking forward to trying it...

I'm not sure what ceramic Eminence drivers are in my TKS S212, but it's only 21kg overall.

Love Rick. He's mint. Jaco's canny too.

My TKS cabs are ceramic, and they're as near to the weight of Neo as dammit...

Because Rachel Fury. That's why.

'Neo vs. Ceramic' is the early 2000's equivalent of 'Class D vs. Traditional',. Before that, in the 1990s, it was Blur vs. Oasis.
