Yussef Dayes, on now. Excellent. Pino's son on bass.

Do you mean B001014? If so, this what your bass is listed as: 'B001014..Neck 15 July 1976 signed “MDA”. Body 9 July 1976 signed “MDA”. Natural with Maple. White pg. Black PUP. Plastic "Radio" knobs. Given to original owner by Leo Fender and used on Johnny Carson Show.' Interesting!

Superb!

Bought a preamp from Ian, no issues at all! Thanks Ian.

I posted this a few years ago!

PMd

42:30 is quite fun!

I'm listening now and I like it even though it'spretty relentless. It's not for everyone and would make Mrs MGB's brain itch, so I'm on a nice pair of headphones. 

Loads of her stuff on YouTube.

She has timing, groove, harmony and creativity - all nailed.

Has anyone on here ever paid money up front to join a band?

You can have cracking musicians, terrific mix etc but the tunes have to be quality and these are all classics. I am not an EJ fan (that might well change)  but this is real quality. The guy is 76 years old ffs.

Absolutely. A revelation. So enjoyable.

Watching Candi Staton on the Beeb...the bass player killing it on "Young hearts run free".

One of my favourite songs.  He's playing a Stingray 5 too.

Elton's sound engineers deserve medals!

How much better is Elton’s sound than GNR? That stingray is slicing through the mix wonderfully. 

Top class sound. 

Elton is rocking this. Great guitarist. Another MM 5 string on show.

The Pretenders - what a set, what a band.

Quality all round. 

Can't quite believe how bad GnR were.

Lizzo was very entertaining. She always looks like she's having a ball.

I toured with one of these for years and never lacked volume (with 2 x Peavey 410TX).  I never had the tone controls fully counter clockwise.  My recollection is that doing so did result in much less overall volume.    Fully agree on the input gain - had it flashing red but the sound was sill clean, so it's another case of using your ears rather than eyes!

I've always REALLY disliked this version. The drums kill it (not in a good way).

How to ruin a song!

Great mix! And top bass playing. Who is he?

Hilarious!

OK thanks. I thought it was yet another technical feature I had failed to use!
