[quote name='sharkboy' timestamp='1424206880' post='2693918'] He called his kid North, ferchrissake! [/quote] North West?? I,m going down the pub!!

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1424094482' post='2692487'] Well, Harrison maybe gets credit for about ten maximum. Are you saying there are more? [/quote] I dont know exactly, although I believe he played on She said, she said after Macca walked out in a huff!. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/what-beatles-songs-did-george-harrison-play-bass-on.184632/

We have Rory Gallagher to thank for all this!!

i think Grandad means that what [u][b]He[/b][/u] ended up playing was not exactly the same as a Maccas original line. BTW did you know that George Harrison played a lot of the basslines too, but remained uncredited??

[quote name='gjones' timestamp='1424040083' post='2691969'] Why not ask the guy who played it. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/user/35928-jerry-scheff/"]http://basschat.co.u...8-jerry-scheff/[/url] [/quote] Mike Leech according to no. 91 on this list. http://www.ricksuchow.com/press-group-241.html

I,m ashamed to say The Land Of Make Believe by Bucks Fizz

I have a Rumble 350 which i use to use at pub gigs, but even then it is a bit over powered. I now use a Warwick Sweet 150 combo and leave the rumble for the bigger venues.

[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1423868913' post='2690034'] Weren't Freur originally called a squiggly symbol? In that their name was simply a squiggly symbol, not an actual word/sound? J. [/quote] That was Prince wasnt it??

Looks heavy, even it is only 3lbs 3oz. It reminds me of George Harrisons Rosewood Tele

As said above, Macca played live bass with a live vocal when that was recorded - (Funnily enough exactly 51 years ago 3 days ago) There was no overdubbing then just live takes. Incidentally, on some of the outakes from that song which are floating about on youtube, there are subtle differences in the bass line which varies a bit from take to take.

The Specials debut album produced by Elvis Costello I believe. I had heard punk and I had head ska, but not together like this. Also Madness's One step beyond blew me away as a 15 year old wannabe bass player!

Apparently this was filmed by our singers wife. Featuring the first appearance of my Epiphone Thunderbird classic IV Pro, A cover of Angie by the Stones. Warning! Bass cockup alert! See if you can spot it [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdx5wdTqDaU[/media]

How light is the Barefaced Super 12T??

Do they? I wouldnt know as i cant read the description!

I could never get the bassline right that plays under the guitar solo on Are you gonna go my way by Lenny Kravitz. Not a difficult line but it appeared to be a random collection of chromatic runs with no pattern to them.

[quote name='tom5string' timestamp='1423156261' post='2681573'] "Face the face" from Townshends White City album. Dont know who's the original bass player - I doubt that it's Pino. Anyway - I just managed twice to get through the whole song. These shuffled 16th are right away too fast for me :-) [/quote] Steve Barnacle is the bassist.

I had a guy playing 'Air Bass' at our gig the other night!

Bruce Foxtons tone on the Jams 'All Mod Cons' album. Mr Clean is my personal favourite. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1V7fYeBAkc

I dont like it.

I have no problem playing this or Sweet Home Alabama or Mustang Sally or Brown-eyed Girl etc. If its what the crowd want then its our job to provide it. This is probably why there are musicians sitting at home noodling instead of gigging. "I,m not playing that! its beneath me!" they quoth.

If your local come and see and hear some classic rock covers tonight, at the Corner House in Maidenhead.

[quote name='gelfin' timestamp='1422531770' post='2673711'] My Sharona. Just can't get the timing right on it. [/quote] Yes, another vote for that one. It definitely sounds easier than it is. Also, The Boys Are Back in Town was dropped by our lot too.

Geezer versus Phil Rudd? i would pay good money to see that!
