Legs - ZZTop

Smoke gets in your eyes - The Platters (Bow ties like this should make a come back).

I can see for miles - Who

Shake, rattle and roll. Bill Haley & the Comets. (Now no standing on the bass please gents & ladies)

Check out Norbert Putnam, long term bassist at the Mussel shoals studio. Have a listen to “ A trip in the country “ by Area Code 615. It’s the Mussel Shoals guys playing some great country.

It may make a whole new you of you. 😆

Rick Danko of the band. Fretless with a plectrum, love the Ampeg bass!

Blackstar headphone amp into Sony headphones (cheap but effective). Also have a little Hartke 150 practice amp that does the job. Then it’s any of my basses that I fancy.

Just got back from seeing Track Dogs, very entertaining. Bassist had a very battered Fender Jazz with the TV logo so probably 70’s, in gold finish which was turning green. Anyone know if this is a common occurrence with metallic gold finishes?

Bread and butter - the Newbeats

Not appealing & way to expensive.

Blowin’ in the wind(ow) Bob Dylan

Roll over Beethoven - Chuck Berry

This is so true @Nice Guy Rich. If you offering praise to the King of the Universe, it needs to be the best you can possibly play/sing. As an aside, it’s really difficult for a congregation to get a lead from badly played music. I remember one time when a music group was endeavouring to play “Indescribable” but really weren’t getting close and someone said it was more like “Unrecognisable “. I hasten to add I was not in that band.

Ain’t nobody here but us chickens- Louis Primo

Me myself I - Joan Armourtrading

I suppose the bonus here is you can oil your chopping board too!

Bit hard on poor Jools! You have to admit though he has a fantastic band, they are all ace musicians. Seen them live loads of times and it’s always entertaining.

I thought you were referring to a shortage of fivers (£5). 😆

Go now Moody Blues

Poke salad Annie - Elvis

Money for nothing - Dire Straits

Thanks for the technical info. Never really understood that. It was of course created by none other than Les Paul as this was originally the Gibson Les Paul Signature bass from the seventies and was a low impedance pickup. Jack Casady rediscovered them and the Epiphone made by Peerless was the result.

Euros are built in the Czech Republic and this certainly looks like a clone of a Spector.

They don’t want any ric-raff playing them!
