I'll be impressed when you get it all in a real mini 😏

Newtone Strings do a set. Only used their acoustic guitar strings, but their service and range are excellent.

Would love to nail that tone.

Heard this yesterday - bass tone is so good. Warm and fat with just a tiny bit of percussive attack.

Oh yes, fabulous stuff. Came across him in the late 80s on French label Carrere.

Yes, and yes 😀

Despite having a copy tucked away somewhere, I hadn't ever twigged that It Hurt's So Good was a Millie Jackson hit. Here's a nice little evolution of the song from the original: through the Millie Jackson hit: and on to the version we all love:

Merlin (Michael) got himself a new job and new band back before lockdown. I know him through local jams - lovely bloke.
