Thank you so much!

Have to learn this tune today, anyone got tab or dots for it?

Mrs FF sounds like a star and you sir are a very lucky fellow!! [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1379537692' post='2214028'] Fair enough. I'd agree that the ideal is a one trip load-in/out, but I'm probably a way off that because of all the other bits I tend to bring along for the rest of the band. But at least they are all easily carried. Actually, if I could drop all the ancilliary stuff, I could probably do a one trip load in/out if I put the BH250 and bass in my soft case over my shoulders, leaving both hands to carry one of the cabs. I guess a lot depends on locations and travel arrangements. I'm fortunate that Mrs FF usually comes with me and is happy to sit in the car while I do my two (or three) trips before going off to park the car and walk back to the venue. The same thing works very well in reverse. Now if only I could get her to carry all the gear as well . . . . [/quote]

Perhaps I had a duff one then! Point I was making is that for me I like to load in to the venue in one trip and that means only using 1 cab another not 2, I achieve this with the Mark Bass head and one of the 1x12 Berg cabs in all sorts of venues and have never felt underpowered but with the BH250 I got nowhere near this hence why I sold it on!! [quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1379534325' post='2213946'] I've got a BH250 plus RS210 and RS212 cabs. I've rehearsed and gigged with just the 210, just the 212 and with both. I can't really remember the venues for each configuration because I've not had a volume problem with any of them, though I did an outdoor wedding reception with just the 212 (the 210 stayed in the car) without problems. I previously played with an Ashdown Mag 300 Evo II and various combinations of Mag210/Mag115 but mainly 2x Mag210 and I've not noticed any volume problems with the BH250 config - though my back is happier. I'm not pretending this is a definitive answer, more to illustrate that asking this sort of 'loudness' advice comes with so many variables that it probably renders any answers not too helpful. The only real way to be sure is to try one for yourself. I don't get the logic of your last point - I'd rather carry more light items than fewer big and heavy ones. [/quote]

Stu Zender played on the released single so if you ever hear it on the radio that will be his version. Essentially the chorus bassline is totally different. I personally prefer Zenders version, as others have said it just seems more focused and tight with a better groove. I think that he played on everything but this version of Space Cowboy on their 2nd album it was Emergency On Planet Earth that had Andrew Levy and others on it. [quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1377329231' post='2186207'] I'm confused here. The Mr. X version you mention is stated as being the album version on that vid, and it sounds like the one I know and love from the album. Why wouldn't Stu Zender, who was a full time member for the second album, be playing on the album's title track? Weird. But, I suppose saying that it's amazing how little he actually recorded for the first album. A few sessioners laid most if it down before he got the job I believe, including Andrew Levy from the Brand New Heavies. This is the only version of Space Cowboy I've ever heard. Anyone got a link to the one Stu Zender did play on? Would love to check it out. [/quote]
