[quote name='skb558' timestamp='1491939141' post='3276688'] Dismissed them out of hand at the Genesis 'Six of the Best' reunion in '82. Having read Phil Brown's memoirs last year, I was intrigued enough to listen again. Superb. [/quote] Ye Gods, that takes me back, if I remember right we were camped in the toilets down the front while they were on, demanding swigs of beer from anyone who wanted to come in for a leak! Either their set was very short or they got booed off early....its all a bit hazy *sigh* I did follow up after the gig though and found the music excellent.

Gasp!

Lemme guess...black on Maple P? Or has the great man expanded his jazz collection a tad?

The White Hart as in..Old High Street? Man that used to be my local back in the 70's No room for any music then, place was always rammed!! Hellfire that brings back some memories.....I even met my good lady in there!

[quote name='ivansc' timestamp='1490086793' post='3261976'] They must have had more members over the years than we BETWEEN US have had hot dinners. Even I got roped in on a very temporary basis on guitar at a tiny festival in a very muddy field in Huntingdonshire. A pal was the actual guitarist at the time and persuaded me to "have a go" So long ago I cant even remember the chaps name but do remember I did NOT cover myself with glory.... [/quote] Given the stories about how pernickety Robert Godfrey could be about playing things right, I'm surprised you escaped with your life!!

Me and the missus have seen the Enid a few times over the years, always different, always challenging, always enjoyed it. Not so sure now RJG has hung up his keyboards though.....

yer that's why stressed people are thin!! Must remember to leap about even more tonight!!!!

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1489571316' post='3257949'] I`m in Hemel Hempstead, about 7 miles away from Berko. [/quote] Haha I was just about to suggest you Lozz, I'm only about half an hour away too. whereabouts are you SH73?

[quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1489002266' post='3253679'] [/quote] Definitely loving that combo, and a brass nut to finish off..........hmm maybe the frets should have gold coloured ....*hides*

Yes yes yes.. Gold 'n' Brown is born!!

[quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1488619566' post='3250465'] The only thing I may have to rethink is the hardware colour. I've gone for black, but I think it needs something to lift and contrast. Probably chrome, but...would gold be too bling? [/quote] Gold 'n' Brown? ya know that might just work

Yup, I'm confused, as my Reidmar 250 produces 250 watts at 4 ohm..and yes it IS feckin loud, I got it as backup to my Eden WT400, which it blew into the weeds! Looking at the specs it seems to me they have just re badged mine as a 500.....poor show!

I have a4x10 XST which sounds the Mutz Nutz, sadly it weighs as much as the vets that removed aforesaid nutz! I won't sell it, but I rarely use it now. I also have a 400w Eden head which also weighs as much as a small outbuilding, ditto selling and using

I love a happy ending me!

[quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1486593727' post='3233193'] Yes - that works . Wonderful! I got to have a high speed taxi run in the tail gunner seat of a Lancaster a couple of years ago. Up there with the best experiences ever! I've got a YouTube clip somewhere - I'll post it if I can find it. [/quote] Maybe we should start a separate thread..this feels like a hijack!!

Yup, well spotted, its on a Dolley so you can run it up and test it without it being mounted in a plane, I was lucky enough to fire it up and give it some wellie as part of a birthday treat visit to Sywell Aerodrome last year...a great day out and I got to sit in a working Mark VIII Spitfire and chat with the pilot, a red arrow display chappie. I have some video of same if I can work out how to post it!

Ye gods, it didn't take you long did it! .......luckily for us! Can't wait to see where this goes

[quote name='JoeEvans' timestamp='1485686521' post='3225749'] Rock solid and muscular? Lithe and propulsive? Relaxed and infectious? Dark and powerful? Deep and throbbing? Spacious and gnomic? Driving and relentless? Quick and quizzical? Warm and expressive? Depends which bass player you're talking about... [/quote] Gnomic? GNOMIC?? What the spong does that even mean?? I mean..a gnome playing bass, does he run up and the the fretboard or what?

[quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1486225553' post='3230174'] One of the 'bits and pieces' still to do [/quote] Aha! And there was me thinking you had somehow found a way to magnetically affix it to a bass player!
