  1. Darn. I was at that show…
  2. Last call for a Sunday lunchtime meet at say Clapham or Hammersmith. I bought this after seeing the Beach Boys bassist playing one. Not only was the sound great, I realised he must have specified it for their only 2 UK gigs. Clearly the Flea set a pro standard, and for two years it has never let me down!
  3. Otis Jay Blues Band head into their fifth year with a new lead singer - if we can keep hold of Cecilia, we have a bright future (hopefully). Vocals/keys, guitar, drums, bass/vocals and harmonica. Trying to diversify into original material - a slow process - so maybe we can get bookings in blues clubs and festivals. As far as it goes, we play anywhere on the (Deep) South coast adjacent to Bournemouth.
  4. This is a new 12-inch vinyl record by the legendary Pretenders singer with special guests - amazing recording, a bit of an undiscovered masterpiece! Still sealed, unplayed. Ideal Christmas present for yourself or a fellow music lover. Yours for £15 posted UK. Now £13. Now £12 Now £10 Absolutely new and unplayed. Deal of the week! 01. Me & Mrs Jones (feat. k.d. lang) 02. Can’t Help Falling In Love (feat. Mark Lanegan) 03. Sway (feat. Lucinda Williams) 04. Dolphins (feat. Dave Gahan) 05. First Of The Gang To Die (feat. Cat Power) 06. Always On My Mind (feat. Rufus Wainwright) 07. Every Little Bit Hurts (feat. Carleen Anderson) 08. I’m Not In Love (feat. Brandon Flowers) 09. It’s Only Love (feat. Julian Lennon) 10. Try To Sleep (feat. Debbie Harry) 11. County Line (feat. Alan Sparhawk) 12. Love Letters (feat. Shirley Manson) 13. (You’re My) Soul And Inspiration (feat. Dan Auerbach)
  5. Gigged this yesterday and another bass player came up afterwards, took it off the stand and examined it! Perhaps I should post all the specs, but I think you all know what a Flea Jazz is. Someone enquired about the neck. I bought from Bass Direct as I had heard some necks were warped, but clearly didn’t have to send it back. All was well. I will, though, photograph the flaming, which is exceptional - the neck is not reliced like the body.
  6. Yet another painless transaction with the doyen of Basschat buyers! 👏
  7. Bought a CD from me In an instantly satisfying transaction. Recommended!
  8. Very slick deal with Steve. Recommended Basschatter!🏆
  9. I don’t much like U2 but I admire them for staying together and lasting the course. I saw them in 1980 and 2006 and it was the same lineup. How many bands can say that? In my diary for 1980 i described them as ‘Like Siouxsie and the Banshees, but with a bloke’…😂
  10. Please edit to put sold in subject line 🙏
  11. Fantastic US-published collection of interviews with top songwriters in all genres. There’s Brian Wilson, James Taylor and Paul Simon but also Chrissie Hynde, Patti Smith, Alice Cooper, Squeeze and Donald Fagen Plus many more… Book (a mammoth 658 pages) is in unread condition. £18 delivered UK. NOW £16 delivered! NOW £14 FINAL PRICE £10
  12. Another excellent transaction with @floFC!
  13. Friday lunchtime in a central Bournemouth church. We do it twice a year and share the retiring collection with the venue. Church has a regular audience for the music and we add to it - have had 100 folk before but 65 was just fine given the season. The promoter got up to sing on Mojo Workin’ and we played two encores. One of which debuted Time Is Tight. Love a bit of Booker T… Gear: Flea Jazz (currently in ‘for sale’ section), GK MB200 through Barefaced Two10.
  14. Good quality soft cotton T-shirt, black, XL, unworn. The ideal Xmas present to yourself. £14 posted UK.
  15. The best-playing Jazz I have owned, and the one that gains all the compliments - from fellow band members for the sound and the audience for its striking looks. Comes with new Fender gig bag and case candy. A retaining screw has been refitted since the pics were taken. Reduced to £875. The one and only pricedrop. It’s such a great bass!
  16. Newly remastered 3CD clamshell box set anthology featuring the three albums recorded by West, Bruce and Laing. 'Out into the Fields - The Albums 1972 - 1974' features all three albums newly remastered from the original master tapes. The set also includes an illustrated booklet with essay.

  19. Mo once offered me a fretless lesson. Wish I’d taken him up on it!
