Carly Simon-No Secrets on BBC4 last night

[yorks5stringer]

Nice cameo from Klaus Vormann showing how he did the intro to 'You're So Vain' on Bass. One of the 'Soundtrack to my 70's' albums.

Great sounding album with a great bass sound throughout. Fender, valves, tape. What a combination.

[Mykesbass]

A nice little demo from him a bit later too. Thanks for posting.

Very interesting doc and that intro was always a mystery to me how he did it...brill.

[yorks5stringer]

Anyone notice Klaus had a big block of foam under his bridge?

[dmccombe7]

Thoroughly enjoyed. Might look at buying an album as she had more great well known songs than i first thought.
She has a definite feel to her music that makes her stand out from others from that era.

I know it's probably very un-hip to admit, but I loved the big production of the live footage.

Yes, lovely sound with that foam block.

Fenders came stock from the factory with a smaller (hidden) block of black semi rigid foam glued to the inside of the ashtray. I always kept mine on, but I was playing tape wounds with a pick.
