  1. And later on, via a sample, Chas & Dave, Labbi Siffre and Eminem.
  2. As per the title. Will be staying overnight before picking my son up, so quite fancy seeing a local band. Will be staying at the Gosforth Park Hotel, but happy to drive (as I don't drink). Folk, Funk, Blues, Americana, originals? Sorry, not standard pub covers thanks, just not my thing.
  3. I worked for a short time for the guy in the darker yellow T-shirt. He worked with Marley as promotions man at Island records. Not too envious...
  4. This, plus in my case, losing around 4 stone.
  5. I could never buy a Wal. 1, I could never afford one, 2, that headstock!!!
  6. The smell is absolutely nauseating.
  7. @neepheid just beat me with the same phrase. Great minds...
  8. Do you have a lounge/kitchen area? Food and drink only in that area. Your studio, your rules.
  9. Sorry for the boast, but I have a credit on this album 🙂
  10. Ah, sorry - your fault for making such a popular thread 😎
  11. This thread is now a bit too long to double check everything, but I'm sure neither of these are on here yet: Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac - I Need You Love So Bad Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You
  12. Peter managed to keep a little bit of magic in his playing in the early 2000s. I worked with him and @mybass on a couple of albums at that time, and, yes, it was hard work, but the flashes of brilliance were still there.
  13. That's a shame. A.S.S. are decent promoters. Sadly, having seen John performing in his mid 80s, I don't think you missed much 😟
  14. Two fabulous tracks from way back when. First up, a masterclass in duetting - Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan, Passing Strangers. And another great Jazz singer, with one of her more popular, less Jazzy outings, but still a gorgeous track, Ella Fitzgerald, Ev'ry Time we Say Goodbye, complete with that fabulous line, 'but how strange the change from major to minor'
  15. It's the accent on the 2 of the second bar that gets me. 3/4 can often sound so lumpy, but this makes it move beautifully.
  16. Exceptional artist. Worked with some great players, producers and arrangers. Love the drums on Just a Little Loving from Dusty in Memphis. Probably overlooked for many years due to her personal life which is very sad.
  17. Welcome to the very small club - thought I was the only member!
  18. Its universal appeal crosses continents, age groups and social classes. I have no idea why this track in particular, but it just seems to have a powerful effect on a vast number of people.
  19. Gmail email account, PayPal friends and family, you provide the PA - the signs are there...
  20. Doesn't stop it from being great. I also nominated Careless Whisper which I've never liked.
