  1. Please put sold in th3 heading...
  2. I once played in a band that backed a reggae singer from St Vincent. We were white, he was black. None of us gave a sh 1t about that. It was the best musical experience of my life. Tell me where I went wrong...
  3. I only have a SC. Am I to be pitied?😬
  4. 63. Exactly my age. To quote a phrase, Oh sh 1t!😳
  5. Only a few left if you fancy a Christmas gift to yourself!
  6. Music kept me going when I lost my first wife. Sure it will be a good friend to you. Rock on, and thanks for sharing.
  7. Bought several books from me in exemplary fashion. Recommended Basschatter!

  12. Yet another smooth Ambient transaction = a credit to our forum!
  13. Good on you, pal, and all the best for 2019!
  14. They were never the same after he learned to sing intelligibility. Radio Free Europe still tingles my spine!
  15. Beautiful...
  16. Now sold £7 posted - the Glenn Hughes autobiography. An ideal Xmas pressie to yourself! Co-written with Joel McIver, this is all you need to know (and a lot more you didn't) on the man who links Deep Purple's family tree with Joe Bonamassa, Ozzy, the KLF and sundry other rock greats. Oh, and Lars Ulrich wrote the foreword. The cover is worth the money on its own...
  17. A band I was in used to take Tupperware containers to hoover up what was left at the end of the night. At the other extreme, in 1981 I was at a photo shoot for Women’s Own magazine - mock ye not, the fan mail I got was unprecedented. It was a ‘how to throw a Charles and Di street party’ feature. Their best cooks prepared the food and the assembled scouts and guys devoured it like locusts as we, the jazz band, played on...
  18. I have a few spare (mint) copies of books by my late great friend Deke Leonard in my cupboard, and it strikes me they would make great Christmas presents for those who like reading about 70s rock music (Maximum Darkness) and/or guitarists of all eras (Twang Dynasty). They are currently unavailable except for silly money on eBay or Amazon Marketplace; I will sell at the regular price and chuck in UK postage. A search of Deke Leonard on BC will find many fans of his witty and informative style. Charles Shaar Murray said "I wish I could play guitar as well as Deke Leonard writes..." I have posted the Amazon links below for further info, though as I say the titles are not officially 'in print'. The Twang Dynasty rrp £17.99 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DJI8KSY/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Maximum Darkness rrp £12.99 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maximum-Darkness-Man-Road-Nowhere-ebook/dp/B00TYJZAQW/ref=la_B00458K95E_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1543423739&sr=1-2 Send me a PM and we can sort out details!
  19. Round our way the guitarists bring their new Les Pauls, retirement gifts to themselves, and learn how to play the 3 chord trick in public. Don’t suppose a new Precision has the same appeal... my ‘competition‘ is mostly returning oldies. Not kids
  20. I haven’t heard the expression ‘FMOB’ for fully 40 years. Made my day!😂
  21. Just passed Leamington myself. Last time there I picked up the missus!
  22. Either that or your culinary standards have plummeted!😳
