  1. Summer of 69 Alexandra Burke's version of Hallelujah 60% of the Beatles output, but for this exercise I'll go for Yesterday.

  3. If you can sit down at gigs, these are a lot of fun (and loud acoustically too) https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Ozark-Resonator-Guitar-Nickel-Plate-Brass-Engraved/ZSG
  4. Have a great gig Michael - sound like it will be a brilliant night!
  5. Haven't quite got around to putting this into storage, but the move is only a couple of weeks away now, so grab a tone monster bargain before it gets put away!
  6. Fantastic Negrito Britney Howard (Alabama Shakes) Songhoy Blues White Denim and another vote for Tedeschi Trucks. All vaguely in the Blues genre, but not old school 12 bar blues or the sort of thing you hear pub RnB bands chugging out.
  7. But what is Smooth Jazz? Are Dave Gruisin, Eric Gale and Bob James Smooth? Is a track like Dexter Gordon's Guess I'll Hang my Tears Out to Dry Smooth ? I personally think it is all down to radio formatting. Jazz FM's Dinner Jazz anyone?😵
  8. Don't love it, but it was reactions like @Paul S that made me start this thread as there is so much good stuff out there:
  9. Don't know if George Melly ever did it on stage, but his Man, Woman, Bulldog party piece left nothing to the imagination.
  10. OK, for something completely different, Bing Crosby, Frank SInatra, Louis Armstrong - Got to be High Society. "Well you take some bass...now you're getting some place"
  11. You trying to merge this with my recent Off Topic post? 😀
  12. Being complimented by @Dood's former drummer at a jam, and making people dance.
  13. Not always. My Fender Pro 800 has an IEC C19. Proper pain when the PA company collected that one up at the end of a gig!
  14. I wonder if Oldfield is aware of this mistaken identity?! Interestingly, a quick Google to see if this has ever come up before shows a result for Robert Michael Oldfield Havers, Baron Havers QC who represented the Crown in the case against the Guildford Four.
  15. https://pastdaily.com/2013/12/27/mike-oldfield-concert-1973-nights-roundtable-concert-edition/
  16. Final Price Drop. Now £300 which has GOT to be a bargain!! Need to sell before impending move or it's going into storage 😔
  17. Ok, gets even more puzzling then. Bobby Sands had some musical background, wrote lyrics for a Christy Moore song, so what on earth is that picture all about?!
  18. OK, PLEASE don't get political on this thread - I'm posting out of historical interest. I saw a Peter Cook Ned Callan bass advertised on Facebook. It looked interesting (as all basses do to us GAS stricken bass players). So I followed one of the links, and was stunned to see who the second most (in)famous Peter Cook bass player was! https://www.pulsebeatguitars.com/html/1970s/1972_Callan.php?fbclid=IwAR2RCOpZc_NHWU3xso7Lw6KGiKZQF8jZ8adEUcJv9fL41k11fvUvW2-v2xY
  19. They have a great reputation, but the only time I played through one at a backline provided gig, without the extension cab, I found it woefully underpowered, with a not very loud guitarist, and not very heavy drummer.
