Thanks, I see it all now. Chris

I'm baffled by the thread title !! Stoner/Doom/Sludge ........ What does it mean?

Blinded By The Light -Manfred Mann/Bruce Springsteen

The only Xmas songs work for me these days are: Greg Lake's "I Believe In Father Christmas" Kevin ***** Wilson's "Oi Santa Where's Me ******* Bike" Fairy Tale Of New York is edited by "Big Media Bruvva" so not interested in that anymore. And finally ......... Re. The Fizz - not my musical cup of espresso but Jay Aston is rather nice. Chris

Welcome back Blue. Well I'm now 69 and still gigging - I started playing bass (aged 17) in 1969 to Youth Club audiences in Church Halls. So to answer your questions.... What do you want to do and accomplish at 65 plus years as opposed to when you were 21? To continue playing live music as long as I can. What is your focus at 65 plus,writing, performance, recording , self study? Performing What are your thoughts on gigging at 65 plus as opposed to 21? Still love it - Love it, playing live makes it all worthwhile. What type of folks do you want to work with at 65 plus? Level headed individuals (probably of a similar age) who also love playing live. Take care Blue, stay safe and may your recovery be timely and positive. Best wishes from NE Essex. Chris

Kung Fu Fighting - Carl Douglas

Hold Me - P J Proby / Maggie Bell & B A Robertson

This. For me it's usually a few bars of improvised noodling ending with Fleetwood Mac's 'The Chain' as the route back into the song

Kiss From A Rose - Seal

Crawling From The Wreckage - Dave Edmunds Rockpile / Graham Parker

Rip It Hard - Michael Katon

Silver Threads and Golden Needles - The Springfields / Linda Ronstadt

Working In A Coalmine - Lee Dorsey

Best wishes to your wife and your dad for full and speedy recoveries. Do not forget to look after yourself Bass_dinger. Take it easy. Chris

Outstanding, I'll be 'playing' along to this later on this week.

From Deep Purple - Made In Japan Ian Gillan - "Can I have a bit more monitor if you've got it?" Anon (Off-mic) - "We want everything louder than everything else." Ian Gillan - "Ha ha yeah, can we have everything louder than everything else."

Humble Pie - Performance, Rockin' The Fillmore

Colosseum - Live (1971), and the 1994 Colosseum reunion concert in Cologne. Extremely Live at Birmingham Town Hall - Chris Farlowe, Spencer Davis, Pete York, Miller Anderson, Colin Hodgkinson and Zoot Money As well as many of those already listed above. Chris

Never was a ABBA fan (I like maybe 4 or 5 of their songs) but I appreciate that they were something a bit special - and gave a lot of pleasure to lot of people. However, I reckon the recent publicity photos in the papers make them look like characters from Disney's 1982 movie - 'TRON'. Chris

An interesting thread with a lot of information, maybe something to consider in the future. So this is probably a daft question, but are the enclosures (RCF. HeadRush, QSC etc) mentioned in many of the preceding posts intended primarily for PA use? Or are they really 'all things to all men' ? Chris

The Same Old Story - Taste (Rory Gallagher)

Excellent programme on right now about The Band and their second album 'The Band'. Really good. Chris

Skin Deep - Stranglers

RIP Charlie.

And another by me at this evening's gig.
