Seem to remember Ronnie Wood ( then Ron Wood and playing bass) got fired from the Jeff Beck Group and soon after reinstated, when a replacement couldn’t be found for a US tour.

I’d have to agree with you - still got mine and it’s only been beaten by my SVT rig in ‘the best amp I’ve ever owned’ stakes.

John Bentley of Squeeze

Oh Atlanta -Little Feat

Galaxy paradise - Stevie Wonder

Satin doll - Duke Ellington

Strangered in the night - Tom Petty

Let's go round again - Average White Band

Having a clear out and found this - it's apparently a 'standard' for DB. F.Simandl - 'New method for the double bass' Book 1. Looks quite an old edition ('4th enlarged and improved German' and English! ). Missing front cover but all 136 pages intact and in quite usable condition. Yours for the postage, couple of quid should cover it? Or collect from East Yorkshire. Cheers

These arms of mine - Otis R.

Proud Mary - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Night Boat to Cairo - Madness

Softly as I leave you - Matt Monro.

I’m in chains - Tina Arena

Cream - Wheels of fire * As a Clapton fan don’t know how I overlooked this. According to Wiki, it was also the world’s first platinum selling double album. For me it works, but only sometimes. I love White Room, Politician, Born under a bad sign and Crossroads, but avoid Spoonful and especially Toad (lengthy instrumental with drum solo!) * Full disclosure - one studio album and one live, tin hat at the ready....

Act naturally - Buck Owens / Beatles

Only women bleed - Alice Cooper / Julie Covington

We do Hey Jude in my acoustic duo. The perfect song to finish off for us - get them all singing the ‘Na na.....’ section, firstly with us , then on their own (usual thing) and finish off together. Rousing but slow enough for people not to get too excited and ideal for those who are a bit tired and emotional. Never thought I’d miss playing it like I am right now either. 😷

Do - Stones ‘Exile on Main St’ - one of my favourite albums Bruce Springsteen - ‘The River’ - ditto. Many seemed to think it would have made a better single album but I like it all. Derek & the Dominos - ‘Layla and other assorted love songs’ - not loved much on here I believe, but a great piece of work IMHO. Don’t - Lou Reed ‘Metal machine music’. Dreadful album following some other great ones, I believe it was to fulfill a contractual obligation.

Walk this way - Aerosmith / Run DMC ( 2 for the price of one..😆)

Tokyo Joe - Bryan Ferry

Behind closed doors - Charlie Rich

Tracks of my tears - Smokey and the Miracles

All down the line - Rolling Stones

Raspberry beret - Prince
