  1. yes 22 is nice for last week of May. apart from all the earthquakes really is a great part of the world says sentimental foal
  2. Hi, article about Mike Richmond, PAGE 50 (fifty)
  3. the answer is; Ron McClure Bass Player Oct 1999 Page 40 (forty) article is "Safety Last".
  4. 100% turnout, surely a BC record?
  5. nice stuff. I hope to try the 5 string version next weekend.
  6. accommodation all sorted lads?
  7. I consider myself an expert at pretty much everything. f*** all good it's done me though.
  8. 1. So What - Miles Davis 2. 5:15 - The Who 3. Get up (Sex Machine) - James Brown 4. Try a Little Tenderness - Otis Redding 5. Everything is Everything - Donny Hathaway 6. Even Better than the Reakl Thing - Marvin Gaye 7. For the Love of Money - The O'Jays 8. School Days - Stanley Clarke 9. Why I sing the Blues - B.B. King 10. Are You My Baby? - Wendy and Lisa
  9. No good. His contribution to those great Sam and Dave and Otis Redding records is high class.
  10. that quote is not included in the Bass Player mag interview. interview is by C. Jisi raised in a musical household , Jemmott caught the bass bug after hearing Paul Chambers on his sisters recording of Miles Davis "If I Were a Bell". However Jemmott does go on too say " Chambers was good for sure, but when I heard Van Morrisson's Moondance, I knew I had to give Jazz away and play some Rn'B".
  11. yes , the Growler has a small body. [quote name='kingforaday' timestamp='1335702393' post='1634705'] yeah always been one of my favourite designs, can't beat them for comfort and playability. i own a few, a toby pro, toby acoustic, mtd grendal and a tobias renegade... and really rate them all (yes even the cheap korean ones) always wanted a growler but they so rarely come up over here and i'm sick of getting stung on import tax! [/quote] got a Grendel V, magic bass indeed. goes good with flats.
  12. yes, bad news indeed. Check your Head is a top record.
  13. just put a new set of 1/2's on this week and no issue woth consistency of feel. they are brighter than I remeber however.
  14. that's right both Steve and myself will be at my house Sunday 27 May venue slightly out of your way but all welcome. 12 Noon kick off, 3.30 finish.
  15. my Growler arrived last week. shits all over any MM I've played. and this is with super high action , a twisted neck and a broken bridge saddle. Imagine how it's going to be when fixed all nice and proper? it's the lighest Bass I have ever owned, it';s resonance is incredible and the electronincs very well though out. it's going to seriously kick ass.
  16. I like the Diamond Fireburst. Might not be easy to find in the UK but worth a go if you get a chance.
  17. The protest song is as much a viable form of pronouncment as any other. Invariably the best protest songs are those which most closley align with our predetermined belief/ideology. I'm not to sure what to make of those who claim he protest to much. Generally I prefer this too insufferable and trite love songs. I'd also venture the value of a protest song is measured on the listeners hyporicsy scale. Case in point would be RATM, "f*** you I won't do what ya tell me" , released by Sony, minus the swearing. FWIW I quite like the Bands Politics in general terms. Personally I have recieved record reviews praising the music but slagging the political lyrics. If people don;t want to hear the message then the opposition to the recording is more tangble than hey it's another crap love/feelings song.
  18. the EB flats are D'Addario Chromes, they just come in a differnet bag. I use Chromes and also Sadowsky (Labella made) flats on 5 string basses I own. Check what the spacing is on your bridge.. I could tell you a story about fitting B string onto my MTD 5
  19. I like the Ashdown filter , not overpowering. probably going to have a lash at the MojoHand Analouge Filter
  20. yes he's pretty much king of the hill thanks for the transcription
