I felt so sorry for that poor man who turned down the better paid job.

S&M - Thin Lizzy

They're all vague approximations at best. Apart from Lemmy's which is nowhere near!

Widdecombe Fair - Peter Wyngarde

I reckon JE would have sounded like that regardless!

Have a look for the Undercover Boss episode with Peavey, it's quite the eye opener!

That was what I thought. He could easily get closer to "that" tone if he wanted to. It's surprising when you realise a lot of our most desired and emulated bass tones were the result of necessity rather than choice. Roger Glover has often said his famous Machine Head Rickenbacker tone was not to his taste at all, being overly distorted, and was an attempt to cut through Blackmore and Lord's din. He's very happy with his current Vigier tone, but that sounds bone dry and sterile to my ears. See also, Geezer Butler. His early tone with Sabbath - Fender Precision with flats through faulty amp/speaker was literally the best he could do.

Bounce - SOAD

Sugar Sugar - The Archies

I expect trying to manage sound in Wembley Arena is a battle you're unlikely to win. Luckily I saw them at the O2 a few years later and it was glorious - apart from delays caused by a trespassing fox inside the arena, but that probably wasn't Rush's fault.

Or without Geddy's bass, which was how I saw Rush at Wembley. All boom, no top. I was heartbroken.

Venetian Boat Song - Mendelssohn

Where Have All the Cowboys Gone? - Paula Cole

Too Late - Frozen - Type O Negative

I bought Pat's MXR phaser -I offered to collect it as we live quite close but Pat very kindly offered to deliver it himself. It's a fantastic pedal in great condition. Top basschatter!
