Not really reggae but then where the hell do you put The Last Poets..? Stupid question really, you put them ON.

Nice and sparse this version...

Now i'm dancing around the living room in Southend! I'm sure* we've made this same Third World transaction before on this thread and I'm already looking forward to the next time! *as sure as I am that at 0:40 on Now That We've Found Love he sings Make that a shït, make that a shït, make that a shït, make that a shït, make that a shït, shït, shït, shït, all over the place I say and later on he's going to spread it all over the land, marvellous. Still, it does contain the greatest lyric ever written at 1:12... I said music, whoooah, yeaaaah.

Isn't top shelf cheap porn? Top drawer I'll take! 😁

Yes.

Size of an ant.

Welcome @Sida79

Excellent. I think episode two is my favourite...

At last, episode 3 of the Ogmios School of Zen Driving...

Sorry, I’m off my mash on ecstasy pipes.

All the links on this thread do that, freakzone!

Superb album. Not (IMHO) as good as Metal Box or The Flowers of Romance but a cracker nonetheless. Ginger Baker, Ryuichi Sakamoto, all sorts of people on this record. It was recorded just before John McGeoch joined in the same year, which is a shame as I love his guitar playing.

Land Of Hope And Glory (ha, ha) looks hectic on the trombone.

These, swear by them.

You, Sir, are bang on.

Don’t you worry about any of that, the Bass Bashes are the very antithesis of all that old bollo. Your description of your playing is exactly how I’d describe mine and I have a gas at the Bashes.

It’s no good preparing pieces to play, you can’t hear anything over the cacophony of everyone playing everything all the time and then you can’t hear anything over the post-prandial burp/fart fest.

First line of my CV, there.

Hopefully I’ll be bringing one of them so you’ll have room for one more.

Much as the bass guitars all look lovely it’s the Scrumpette’s roast potatoes* that I have in my particular tractor beam. *not a euphemism.

Toots! 😭 RIP.

Sadly this looks like the case, but what a Bash we’ll have when we get there!

🤘 That video has just made me long for a heaving pub full of loud rock, in fact I’m actually craving a cigarette (I don’t smoke), a pint (I barely drink) and I’m considering purchasing my first bikers jacket for forty years, loved it 🤘

Indeed I do, I always forget (until I see the clip on Friday night music compilation progs) that he played guitar in The Equals too...

I had a 70s disco reggae thing going on today Third World leading, inevitably, to Eddy Grant... ...not that it matters but I don’t even know if it is reggae. I know I love that squelchy electronic sound in this song.
