Excellent choice. My daughter got one of these when she was 8 and it took her all the way to Grade 8. (Nowadays she just raids my collection) 😀

Yes, but according to Adams, the '69 isn't referring to 1969

Little Drummer Boy. Partly because it's sickeningly twee, but mainly because of it's association in my mind with Ian Brady & Myra Hindley https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/chilling-recording-shocked-the-court-133705.html

Fender American II Pro Bass with bottomed out saddles - easy fix?

Make sure you replace the screws in the same hole they came out of. I’ve heard of case where screws of differing lengths have been used. -

Fairytale of New York for pretty much the same reason.

You can also add Rod Clements of Lindisfarne onto the list.

Pah! Amateurs! Last set of strings I bought cost £218. (Admittedly they were a set for an Upright 🙂) For a bass guitar, the last set I bought cost £50 (Thomastiks) but that was in 2014 and they're almost broken in by now.

My daughter started taking bass lessons at that age. She's just turned 15 and got her Grade 8 certification a couple of weeks ago

Martin Lamble and Jeannie Franklyn. One a truly gifted drummer taken far too early and the other, the inspiration for Jack Bruce's "Songs for a Tailor"

From 1969

To be fair. Tork was actually quite an accomplished musician on the Greenwich Village scene. He'd worked with Pete Seeger and heard about the casting for the Monkees from Stephen Stills (who'd been rejected for a part)

Actually, that comment was mine. 😊

I would pay good money just to watch Danny tuning up. The work he did with John on the BBC's Transatlantic Sessions is well worth checking out (and features a stellar rendition of Solid Air).
-
CDs backed up to FLAC format and then converted to mp3 on an iPod Classic with a 512 Gb Solid State Drive for listening to. Some FLAC downloads from Bandcamp, but only a few.

I had a similar issue with my Jack Casady, the tool in the OP was about as much use as a bucket of warm spit. I then got hold of the'Jack the Gripper' tool cheap and it worked very well. (I subsequently applied some threadlock and haven't had an issue since).
