  1. Kirsty classics Kite and Electric Landlady have been reissued on audiophile-quality vinyl. No need to stress the excellence if these releases. Amazon price them each at £35. 😬 I will accept £25 the pair, UK post included.
  2. Great communication on our recent deal - a trustworthy Basschatter!
  3. His son Adam played for them live for some years (visible or not, I don’t know)… I wouldve thought any decent keyboard player would have wanted to remain anonymous 😂
  4. Mick was a really good bass player who certainly impressed me. Fly Guitars - an excellent resource - did an interview with him which explains the genesis of this instrument. https://www.flyguitars.com/interviews/mickhawksworth3.php
  5. Pretty sure Rick only played with them on one studio track and was paid in beer! Can you really see the man who ate a curry in stage with Yes staying behind a curtain? I can’t!
  6. Effortless transaction… again! Deal with confidence.👏
  7. This is truly a classic thread… Stop me if I have told this one before… In 1980 I had a band modelled on the Pretenders, whom I had seen and fallen in love with. Our Chrissie was an Australian girl who ended up being deported I believe - anyway she left us looking for a replacement. We auditioned four girls at Alaska Studios in Waterloo, London. Among them was a lass fresh down from Scotland who was so shy she wouldn’t emerge from the corner of the room at first. Also she had a rather obnoxious boyfriend, as I recall. So we passed. Months later I saw Eddi Reader on TV backing the Gang of Four, and later still duetting with Annie Lennox in Eurythmics. Bloomin ‘eck! Bet she has had many a sleepless night regretting my decision😂
  8. I don’t remember lending you my Fender, Paddy😂
  9. Google Mick Hawksworth and you will find it to your advantage.
  10. A great idea for a thread, but please identify the basses in the picture (s) for the benefit of us ignoramuses! 🙏
  11. New compilation of Quo 1966-69. Includes fantastic BBC sessions disc as well as pre-Quo cuts, mono-stereo of their first two albums, B-sides and rarities. Unplayed condition. Great booklet and sleeve notes by Classic Rock’s Dave Ling. Released March, but why wait? RRP £27.99, yours for only £15 posted UK.
  12. Do you want a flake (or three) with that? 🍦
  13. Amazing 550-page hardback book on the music business and its decline. Probably the most fascinating read of the year so far. Incredibly well researched and thought-provoking. New and unread. RRP £30, yours for £18 posted UK. Now £15
  14. Absolutely no problems - even with a small amp like a MB200 or Elf.
  15. A bass-playing angel suggests itself!
  16. Perfect book sale with this fella - a recommended Basschatter!
  17. What is the quickest and easiest way to get a decent band logo please? Rather than badgering the guitarist to ask his artistically gifted daughter😂 Thank you!
  18. Classic live album from legendary bassman. Features Larry Carlton and Billy Cobham New and unplayed: £7, UK postage included. Now £5
  19. Third time there so we are used to it! Admittedly they won’t be dancing on the spot, but when you’re playing to a packed house (plus a few upstairs) it isn’t too much of an issue. Worst bit is playing strung out in a line. Looking at pics I shoulda maybe been closer to the drummer.
