none of their later material has really grabbed me since moving pictures and signals - too formulaic and lacking in the charisma department - i dont dislike their material and im not against their change of style per se i just think their current style and sound hasnt produced anything of equal merit to the early and mid stuff if you get my drift edit - oops sorry forgot the answer to the original question here it is [url="http://youtu.be/wlNrQGmj6oQ"]http://youtu.be/wlNrQGmj6oQ[/url] listen to all 26 mins and tell me if you honestly think that any of the recent albums have any bass lines to compare with this

kick me now if you like but is it active? if so did it come with batteries included?

id forgotten just how tight this line up were - marvellous it is to be sure - and with hr hackett still on guitar and mr rutherford before he defected to the dark side [url="http://youtu.be/8z1kLUP3ohg"]http://youtu.be/8z1kLUP3ohg[/url]

thanks everyone

i think hi ho silver lining should be a lawful excuse for GBH

just as a thought .... has anybody any experience of perspex or acrylic bodies? i recall the dan armstrong thingy from years ago and if i remember correctly was there a bass version as well as the six string? the idea of a perspex/acrylic bitsa project has just occured to me and requires a modicum of investigation i feel

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1321626135' post='1441368'] What exactly do you mean by "Googling" it in this context? Do you just put the name of the process into Google and see what comes up?

[quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1321610579' post='1441086'] I've used FreeStudio for ages & (so far) it's been perfectly OK, but Avast! checks everything on download & has prevented one or two from happening, but this always gets the OK. but +1 on the above.
