    Absolutely the same with Steely Dan, they were my brother’s music but then I became a punk and hated most music that wasn’t punk and especially my brother’s bands. Now I love Steely Dan.

    This is vey true, I put a new set on my Rob Allen soon after buying it and it is such a different sound despite being the same strings, wondering now how long I'll have to play it before they sound like the old ones!

    This is very true. Jaco leaves me absolutely cold and yet I recognise him as a great player and a pioneer. Kraftwerk, however, have been a huge inspiration to me over the years, I totally dig them and yet I can understand people who don't.

    Agreement with lots of this. Manic Street Preachers - I dislike anything after Everything Must Go. Bob Dylan - Just can’t abide his voice. The Fall - Does not compute. ...and don’t get me started on Dire Straits.

    The first side of Low is, imho, Bowie’s finest work by a country mile.

    Graceland - Paul Simon I just don’t get it, leaves me completely cold.

    Because we are off our mash on ecstasy pipes.

    The last band I saw was Slim Cessna’s Auto Club, only a small audience but a really good gig, captivating and odd, kind of Deep South gothabilly...

    On the side.

    The least dissonant and atonal track on City of Glass, bonkers nonetheless.

    Well I'm confident your suspicions are wrong, Sergeant. We don't commit murder here. We're a deeply religious people. Welcome

    I was once working a Glastonbury and was making my way through the crowd when someone from my home town bumped into me and pleaded to go backstage to use the loos as the ones audienceside were atrocious, I explained that they were just as bad backstage the only difference being that Chris Evans might be in the queue.

    Just because a) I’m watching TOTP reruns and b) because Leigh Gorman doesn’t get mentioned on here often, it at all (I think) and he’s a great player...

    That’s quality.

    I was lucky enough to purchase a Rob Allen Mouse from the marketplace here and those basses are strung with La Bella 760n strings so they were my first introduction to nylon tape wounds, I liked them so much I had them put on my Squier Jaguar when I had it set up. I'm a convert.

    I was once at Nomis Studios with Killing Joke (just ligging at a rehearsal, not playing or anything) when I popped off to the loo, mid pish I realised the urinal to my left was occupied by John Taylor and at the urinal to the right was Andy Taylor, a thoroughly 80s toilet experience, there.

    Just sold a Taylor Mini Bass to Pete, an absolute gentleman, a pleasure to deal with.

    I think with Battles it is very much a love/hate thing, I have played this track to several people who I thought would dig it but really didn't.

    I saw them perform it live not long after the Later performance, I thought the building was going to collapse.

    The TC PolyTune clip on is around £42 but if you buy the TC UniTune clip on its around £29 so you save yourself a tenner plus by not having the inaccurate and flaky PolyTune function which is pretty useless on bass (and guitar tbh).
