Get a hybrid and you will still have the all valve itch. Only way to really scratch that (and find out the answer is No, I don't need a valve amp) is to own such a beast. Speaking from experience here...

Buccaneer can you help me get my truck in gear. She did have some classics!

Love, love me do You know I love you I'll always be true So please Love me do

Blooming phone...

At the risk of a case of grandmothers and egg sucking, could it be really sensitive to string height? Stunning build.

Yes, small venue in Eastbourne on my Facebook feed has just announced their grant.

Here you go - must update it, I've fallen a bit behind as the audio on my laptop had somehow fried itself... https://open.spotify.com/playlist/59RhYT5dLPwboS9u3njL4S?si=oGgmMf8sTaarjSRBDrqHjA

Working on a whole bunch of songs, but more importantly, working on playing them without looking at my left hand! I think much of it is semi-concious, but I've noticed nearly every picture of me that's wher I'm looking! Started with fretted bass - all went well. Now just retraining on the fretless. Good first session, but old dogs, new tricks, I reckon it will take some time to perfect!

You want a double-entendre? I'll give you one.

Heard this once in Homebase and will now forever be Just an Emulsion.

Interesting, thanks. Will have to listen again armed with this info.

One of Six Music's favourite oldies, played again this afternoon. Nice riff and groove, but I'm struggling to work out the count after the chord changes, where the riff comes back in, sort of across the bar. Anyone play this? Or anyone fancy having a listen and tell me what's happening? Thanks.

But that is sort of my point. Bass is not a vanity instrument, therefore, it shouldn't matter to bass players when people don't highlight it for praise. We know it wouldn't be as good without us!

Short answer, No. Longer answer: One of the most highly appreciated songwriters of all times. His bass lines were an integral part of that songwriting process. So even if Jo(e) Public don't jump up and down hailing his bass playing it doesn't mean it is under appreciated. And that's from someone who really doesn't care much for the Beatles.

How did we go so long without this

Saw Miles do a solo gig in Liverpool promoting new material. One drunk constantly heckled for Size. 'for some people it will always be 19 fxxcking 91' was his response. And yes, the late Martin Gilkes was a great live drummer.

He had another dance hit in an earlier period with I Thought it Was You. Both that and Rockit were very different to his amazing Jazz repertoire!

Not trying to be the cool hipster here, but I genuinely loved Frank when it came out. Must dig it back out to see how it has aged.

This. Even if not excessive volume, your ears are probably looking for a rest.

Wonderstuff Dizzy. Pretty sure a large number of people who know that don't even know Size of a Cow.

Frankie Miller 'Darlin'. He is so much better than his one big hit.

The best Steele for Metal...

OK, from previous record company experience (and I've just checked and it is still the case) - nearly all music is broadcast through a license with PPL. There is no negotiating fees for radio stations for individual tracks*, so it is not a cost issue. *There may be one or two exceptions, but I've checked and the Beatles are not one of them.
