  1. Like no doubt many Bass Players before me have labelled this tune as one of the greatest Bass lines ever written, I myself have tried nail this tune down for yonks, but never quite got the sound.? So a quickie for you, I know that a lot of what Freddie's sound was about was his fingers, but I was just thinking what strings he may have been using.
  2. ?Anyone use it,if so is it safe (ie no spyware). Thought id ask anyone on here,already come unstuck with You tube Downloader,which is full of spyware.
  3. In this vid..
  4. A band such as ELO only ever achieved one number one hit, and that was because of Olivia Newton Johns Input(Xanadu), and yet a bland uninspiring act like Coldplay has two to their name, life was never fair, Coldplay aren't fit to lace up Jeff Lynn's boots who was an absolute musical genius ,that must p him off .
  5. Mr Gadd was leader of the gang,
  6. Last Train To London. Never played it live, simply because I can't play the damn thing, ever since well 1979 really.
  7. Spanish stroll classic that one.
  8. Unfortunately yes.
  9. Yep just tried that ,doesn't work ,it's a dud.
  10. Sorry I have that wrong ,it is fact 9 v ,and yes it still doesn't work properly with it switching off or going dead.
  11. ?Would anyone have an idea as to what could be the problem I'm having with the above. When the Zoom is plugged into my pc USB port, it works normally for a short period of maybe three or four minutes and then it kind of freezers and becomes inoperable ,and the same thing happens when its run from Batteries as well, I have tried it with a power supply a generic one i have with variable voltage set at 7 volts ,still the same. I have emailed Zoom customer service but have not had any replies at all in four weeks. Almost losing faith with this now.
  12. Saw Thin Lizzy live in 79.Brid Spa Royal Hall,i was thinking ?what strings did Phil use.
  13. Lovely tones my Friend,? what make are the flats bud.
  14. Well he'd certainly be in my top ten fella.
  15. Of course not ,him being number one who happens to be in a world famous band go hand in hand fella.
  16. Yes I'm afraid so ,when you've sold 100 million records worldwide over a 40 year career you must be doing something right ,on that score alone he deserves to be number one
  17. Feel free to name them fella.
  18. OP, did you write this article? No Are you John Taylor? 🤔No but i wish i bloody well was my friend.
  19. He's not just mine ,he's millions of others too, in terms of success and popularity over the last two years he is the number one p[layer whether you like that fact or not fella.
  20. But if your name was on the list ,then you would have different opinion .John Taylor has to be the number one bassist simply because he has been the most successful player over the year of 2021,but agreed the others are also rans.
  21. The clue is in the Thread title my friend.
  22. Totally agree with the Number one, without a doubt..? Who's your number one. https://www.musicradar.com/news/best-bassists-2021?fbclid=IwAR1fT3U2SWe_yOusvDk30Le1DAtSQwL1ZQvuE9CQji1-pNUjmf_oxJc_SQw
  23. My tenpeneth worth is that surely Microbes don't like lemons, therefore they couldn't grow or multiply where the Lemmon oil is present assuming he means Lemmon Oil. Olive oil or any other organic substance may be a different matter though.
  24. Well after my debacle with the Zoom B1four packing up recently, I have experienced a slight mishap today, whilst recording something today ,my take on (Strange town ) I got carried away and the Focusrite 2i2 2nd gen I was using to record with was dragged off of my recoding bench onto a carpeted floor. So after quickly re plugging into my PC using the USB cable nothing happened, no power going to the Focusrite .Oh no i thought ,I haven't knackered this up as well I thought .Anyway after some deliberation I decided to give Focusrite a call, and I can honestly say their customer service was second to none, it was 5.30 pm this evening and they answered the Phone,i told the customer service guy Andy what had happened and he immediately pointed me in the right direction as to why i was not seeing any power going into the unit .He went on to say that the problem lied with the actual USB plug in the machine which was damaged during the drop, a common occurrence he alluded, and he ordered me a new plug FOC there and then ,Now I'm not one for doing reviews but i can say with all honesty that this chap was great with me, so with that in mind I'm giving Andy and Focusrite 5 stars for customer service. Well done chaps, I will report back back if and when the thing is fixed.
