Welcome @Dave Rowe

We can all appreciate a good dinger, especially at St Cuthbert's on an Easter Sunday.

Or have had advanced tutoring at the sorting office.

The envelope is a difficult instrument to keep in check, particularly played in the 'push' style.

I think a Sky Arts specific thread is a good plan!

I tend to cover those here...

Superb documentary, loved every minute of it.

It’s a great question and one I’ve wondered about for years.

The.whole series is interesting in parts although marred by daft narration from Noddy Holder.

Love this...

Welcome @inthefields.

Remember what @agedhorse said...

I’m with you, love those early Voxes.

Thanks for this darling, however, I feel I have to be pedantic... *Iver, Iver Heath and Not F****** Ivor The Engine (Park).

Bristol Stool for me...

Digging this ^ raise you a John Zorn...

No, well, just about to spend the afternoon catching up, but love Klezmer.

Just purchased a Warwick from @Osiris, excellent comms, smooth transaction, top Basschater and all round good egg. Can I just also take this opportunity to announce the birth of out second child, Eugene, a melon shaped amphibious boy made entirely from tungsten.

Welcome @Bassosaku

Sure, subjectivity. Next.

Sounding great! Two of my favourite albums to play along with are Forces of Victory and Bass Culture by Linton Kwesi Johnson. I remember (years ago now) listening to them and thinking it would be easy to play... duh, so wrong. I love the bass playing on both albums, really gets you into the reggae mindset. Family Man Barrett is a truly great bass player, along with his brother one of the best rhythm sections ever! Anyway... ...and, just because @Reggaebass and I will use any excuse to post a bit of Samasara (great bass)...

I've been considering a Hofner, it's next on my list to try so thanks for the idea.
