I remember when it was suggested our band do 'One Way or Another'....


I was ready to leave the band after the first time we played it - the bass line wanted to make me top myself!

Even I know the start of Phantom of the Opera, karlfer. You'll be playing 'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac next

I remember playing 'Peaches' at a jazz rehearsal once before realising that no-one else in the room had actually been BORN when the Stranglers had originally released it!!

Ref: the 16 year old singer. No-one that young should be allowed to make decisions about repertoire. No-one.

[steve-bbb]

look at all this confusion

ime this is because it was most likely played on a P with a pick

now if it had been fingers on a J .....



anyways, here is a video clip from last year of our young chanteuse who will be performing said song about the lady and the motorised conveyance

[url="http://youtu.be/IMyerGq1Jjk"]http://youtu.be/IMyerGq1Jjk[/url]

[/quote] I've been playing Mustang Sally...ish and (a bit of)the Chain in our set for years and I've yet to hear a good reason why I shouldn't. All I do hear is folks thanking me for doing it and moaning when we drop it. What matters is how you play it - in my case I find it entertains the Williams and entertains me best by playing it like it stole my wallet. Do I copy ( the wonderful) McVie's line ? Not really. He wouldn't copy mine. I usually end up in the audience for Mustang Sally to make room for more inadequately clad young ladies of the opposite sex to get on stage and sing the backing vocals. 'Blue Jobs' we call them. Only a matter of mathematics that one or two of them will have a daddy complex !
