Top House has started up with music again, but there isn't a 'music pub' as such in Burgess Hill, just pubs that have music (big difference).

Could it be that most music is listened to on phones and ear pods via streaming these days? None of this is particularly bad friendly.

I used to do a version of this - lots more of the original Camille Yarborough version, but at the Fatboy tempo, and with some of the Fatboy "landmarks" thrown in for good measure. Just realised this falls foul of your 2000 bar (problem with getting old), but think it is well enough known to work in the Pickled Ferret.

Time for some new ears methinks 😎

Get Lucky should be top of the list for that brief.

Glue? And of course, Bones themselves:

Caught this when it was repeated two nights ago. Not the worlds biggest Northern Soul fan, but I do like it. I have to say, that was the best orchestral performance of non-classical repertoire that I have ever heard. The trombones were blowing like the best of the Big Bands, the string arrangements were fabulous. I thought the vocals were pretty authentic too - the first singer had a great timbre, and one of the women had an amazing lower register. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Another revisit is Springsteen and his two versions of Ghost of Tom Joad. Second version with Tom Morello is great.

Sorry, can't post them as my internet is currently running on steam, but much like @Dad3353 says with the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan likes to change things around with his vast repertoire. Don't Think Twice, It's Alright is one of the really obvious choices.

Haven't seen this yet, but should be good. Only broadcast in Northern Ireland but now on iPlayer for 11 months. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m00206t5/the-rory-gallagher-story?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2XFBxI1Kof2npKFVsJHY24FS_-pRzq3eGQFhczYeD9nfGUnK8psb8_Dzk_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw

Nice thread Tim 👍 Quick question, without adding tracks (I have none) how does one "like" a playlist? I have followed it, but can't seem to like it?

Slight tangent, but the novel, Accordion Crimes by E Annie Proulx is a great read, demonstrating the way the accordion intertwines through many emigrant musical styles in the US. Well worth a read for any literary fans.

Anything Nash can do Fodera can do better...

I'll have a P please Bob.

This also ties in with the heavier gauge going through slots for a lighter gauge.

Just had to add this to the Basschat Great Quotes thread!

Used to play two smaller parks in East Sussex - both quite high end (by holiday park standards) and the band used to get about £100 over the local pub rate, so about £350 from memory. This was 15 years ago.

Schoolboy error Dave - no indication on the site as to your whereabouts.

A bit of this, but also, a lot of older artists have absolutely no say on how their work gets used, whereas more recent signings may well have held on to more control.

The best cuisine poll couldn't have included any post-war British votes!!

The other big thing in ads for a few years now, and has created a few huge hits along the way, is the 'acoustifying' of old songs. Latest dirge is the Pandora advert.

There seems to be a lot of 'vintage' references throughout advertising at the moment - fashions, cars, skateboards. Are people finding it hard to look ahead with positivity, so advertising cleverly let's them look back to perceived better times?

Looks like they incorporated the pickups into their guitar website: https://www.eternal-guitars.com/copy-of-p90
