  1. I bought myself a Miles Davis 20 album CD boxset, which includes this one. So, if anyone here wants this album as a freebie, just let me know and I'll post it to you.

  2. I received this a couple of days ago - pristine condition original double vinyl album. Playing along to the title track is so enjoyable.

  3. I used the men's restroom between sets - and this happened! I could hear the guys on stage - waiting for me!!!

  4. Drop Chris Mcintyre an email. He's a star. I've used chris for decades - in fact, I used to fly to London to get my instruments worked on when he was based there. He now has a workshop beside the Easter Road football stadium in Edinburgh. http://www.mcintyreguitars.com/mcintyre-guitars-clients.html
  5. This thread has prompted me to buy a mint copy of the pleasuredome double LP. Should be with me in a day or two. Playing bass along to the 13 minutes of the opening track is still mega fun. Love it!
  6. Dave is a busy boy - gigging, and being an all round great bloke.
  7. The Peter Gabriel live DVD and album - "Secret World Live" is a fantastic piece of work. http://youtu.be/KN1zO-ejJvE
  8. I was knocked sideways by the news this morning. I've spent most of today feeling tearful. He was a huge part of my musical life, it seems surreal that he's gone. The new album is great too. Someone said today that they'd felt like "the Elvis of our generation has passed away". To me he was far more influential than Elvis. I actually said hello to David in Manhattan a few years back. It seemed so odd to see someone, who always appeared to be such an icon, in an everyday setting. I said, "my goodness! David Bowie! Don't you look great?". To which he smiled and replied, "why thank you my good man", and we parted. I feel shellshocked.
  9. I love the new album. I've been listening to it on headphones today - so many great textures. As for the packaging - black print on black paper - makes reading the lyrics a real chore!
  10. Just practice. Things eventually fall into place. The more you play and practice, the easier it becomes to remember, or pick up, the tune you're working on. If you're getting frustrated , just remind yourself that you're not as bad as this guy: http://youtu.be/Vms_6_TSQuc
  11. Just received this! A mini Lego-style electric bass! [URL=http://s7.photobucket.com/user/kevin_lindsay/media/20151227_150259-1.jpg.html][IMG]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y289/kevin_lindsay/20151227_150259-1.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  12. No problems with the Android version on my Samsung S5
  13. The guys at The Gallery are great. I've always loved visiting there.
  14. Adele (she plays bass and 6 string guitar)
  15. Surely this has to be included? "The Police - Walking On The Moon" http://youtu.be/zPwMdZOlPo8
  16. I got one for £20 from Amazon in the UK (hang on, wasn't that a Sex Pistols song?). The price jumps up and down on Amazon so put it in your basket and grab one when the price goes down.

  17. Exit Stage Left would be my suggestion also. Great selection of tracks (even though the sound mix is rather muddy).
  18. Albums: Rush - Exit Stage Left (fantastic tracks - apart from YYZ which I can't stand). Tom Waits - Orphans: Bawlers, Brawlers & Bastards (brilliant collection of songs). Steely Dan - Citizen 1972-80 (sheer class which has kept me entertained for decades). U2 - Achtung Baby (my favourite U2 album). David Bowie - Five Years set (classic early Bowie which still sounds inspirational). Beatles - stereo remastered set (the standard to which everything else is compared). Peter Gabriel - Secret World Live (one of the best live albums ever made). The Who - Hits 50 (just so I can get most of my favourite Who tracks on one set). For a book - Tom Wolfe - Bonfire Of The Vanities (I've read this book over and over. In fact, I think I'll do so again). Luxury item - my Martin HD28VS acoustic guitar.
  19. I've got the first 3 seasons of Boardwalk Empire looking for a new home. Genuine article, not a copy or a cheapo knock - off. I bought the set from a guy on here a while back. So, if anyone wants them as a freebie, just let me know and I'll get them posted off to you ASAP. Kevin
  20. Pino again - fantastic bass on this track: Oleta Adams - "Get Here" Watch "Oleta Adams - Get Here" on YouTube http://youtu.be/K2-yUQS70Kc
  21. Yup, "I shoulda Loved Ya" was T.M. Stevens on bass. Another cracker - this time with Randy Jackson (of American Idol panel fame) on bass. Narada Michael Walden "Divine Emotions" http://youtu.be/1XCTNi_2AS4
  22. If it's Major Tom, why was he wearing face jewellery in the space suit?
  23. Chaka Khan - Edinburgh Playhouse around 1981/2. The support band were a bunch of smooth jazz widdlers who played for around half an hour. 15 min break then Chaka came onto the stage, with the support band as her backing band. 40 minutes of her wailing, then off stage. Returned to play "I Feel For You", then the house lights cane up. Absolutely dire gig. Only gig I've ever walked out of was Rush in Glasgow SECC on the Clockwork Angels tour. Appallingly bad sound. If I'd just have waited for the DVD I could have saved myself the £85 ticket cost!
  24. Love it -he's back doing something that interests him, without pandering to the run of the mill "music scene". Good on him!
