Wade In The Water (Marlena Shaw) Edit: Had to add the track just because it's such a good version. What a voice!

The Joker And The Thief (Wolfmother)

As an aside, the village pub where they were knocking the wall down over looking the Tamar Valley used to be a regular haunt as a teenager. I had to pretend I was 19 on my 17th birthday in there as I'd already been drinking there for a year. The room they were knocking into used to be 'the back room' where they had bands every Friday and Saturday, and it would be absolutely rammed every weekend. It had a kind of crazy vibe where pretty much anything went. One of the locals would appear in the side door to the little pool room with a tea towel covered baking tray that he'd just walked right through the village with, "Tuck in" he'd say as he took the towel off of a tray full of dried mushrooms. Had a few years of crazy times centered around that pub. It also amused me that when asked what he wanted to drink in there, Tom Kerridge said, "Just water please, I don't drink". Then went on to explain why pubs aren't making as much money. 😅

Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who)

Cake have done some brilliant covers. Not necessarily better than Sabbath, but I love their version of War Pigs.

The Ska & Mod revival period brought with it some great covers of original scene. The Specials and The Jam are right up there but The Beat, and later Fine Young Cannibals, did some fantastic covers of pop songs. This is a favourite. I prefer The Slits version of 'Heard It Through The Grapevine' to Marvin Gaye's. The little known UK Renegades did a little known version of the little known Bill Haley track '13 Women' which one of my favourites songs ever. If The Beatles had tried harder they could've been this good 😉. This is where I first the The Slits' Grapevine, loved this album when I was younger but lent it to a mate and never saw it again. I used to love that an unknown local band (Golant Pistons) were on there. I think the whole album of covers will play on that link, apart from Devo's Satisfaction, which is missing, copyright I presume.

This looks like a fun way of playing with no pubs open at the mo. https://www.facebook.com/DrumTalkTV/videos/712427718835895/ Sorry about the Facebook link, can't seem to embed the clip, I assume it's a fb thing.

Very nice, and like you say, being HB it'll be very playable I'd imagine. I think @stewblackhas their P bass in the same finish, it also looks a beaut. Also, dare I say it, I prefer the headstock shape to Fenders.

Hard to Handle (Otis Reading)

Driving home for Christmas (Chris Rea) Too early? 😁

I've sent you a PM with my details. Just let me know how much you want for p&p. 🙂👍

Tori Amos' Winter puts me slightly on edge all the way through and I find myself almost holding my breath until the chorus begins with a sigh of relief. But the tense feeling soon builds again until the beginning of the next chorus. It's a beautifully sad song.

Fisherman's Blues (The Waterboys)

That also looks good but appears to be about £20 from 'normal' booksellers. I like the bargains you can find in those cheapy book shops. I've actual ordered, or other people have, Alfie Noakes' book, Guy Pratts 'My Bass & Other Animals', and Soulsville USA the story of Stax Records. The one @Dad3353linked to is looking like it'll wait until my birthday in Feb, as the "we don't know what to get you" will be repeated. Thanks all 🙂👍

Mine arrived yesterday. It's a Christmas present for me so I'll have to wait to read it. Looking forward to it though. 🙂👍
