Happy Jack Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I thought this was going to be about Bill Black or Jerry Scheff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpy Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Probably a well known fact by this community but I'll reiterate it anyway! Macca owns Bill Black's famous white binding bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingus Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I think that Olympic White Precision is now in a display case at Graceland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grangur Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 [quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1380353004' post='2224073'] ah yes the imposter elvis who is this new pretender 'costello' of whom you speak? [/quote] Elvis Costello has released more albums, more singles and more films. He probably plays more instruments (hard to be certain). Costello's music also incorporates more genres of music and his musical skills are undoubtedly higher. As for singing, beauty is in the ear of the beholder. Presley probably has it there for clarity and old fashioned crooning. The alum "Almost Blue" is a great album for classic blues. Costello's music is also good for displaying the talents of the whole band, not just that of the named artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grangur Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Just wondered. It's strange how The Sun suddenly have become amazingly sensitive about "product placement" advertising Edited September 28, 2013 by Grangur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
