    A bunch of chums and I did a cover of Peter Gabriel's In Your Eyes during the days of covid. We made a video and uploaded it to YouTube. We all enjoyed the process so much, we decided to have a go at Don't Give Up. We did the recording OK, but by the time it came to organise a video, the lockdowns had ended and everyone in the group was starting to get busy again, so the video never happened. This meant that the recording is just sitting around on hard drives doing nothing. Therefore, today, I decided it was time to rectify that and uploaded it to Soundcloud. Here it is for your aural perusal...

    You could drop a G&L pickup in it, although that is probably covering the same ground.

    Just read about this on the BBC. Another really influential bass player gone within a week. People tend to mostly associate The Smiths with Morrissey & Marr, but AR was such a big part of the sound too.

    Two gigs in the space of a week for me! Tonight was Rich Hall in Birnam. He was both very, very funny and very clever. The second half was musical fun, with C&W as the basis; highly recommended.

    Bruce Thomas gets an awful lot of love, quite rightly, here and is always associated with the P bass. However, I just found this image, whilst searching for info on another player. Good on yer, Bruce.

    Novel, but I understand, from those in the know, that the strap over the front of the upper, rear bout, alleviates the problem somewhat.

    As a stand alone song Chris Cornell wins for me. I remember seeing Casino Royale at the cinema and being blown away by the title song and realising it was CC. My other votes (I had 3) went to the 2 OHMSS options because of the marvellous JB strings.

    Today I shall play along to Babooshka as a tribute.

    OHMSS and YOLT are very similar.

    It’s John Barry at his stylistic best. I like the way David Arnold used certain JB motifs, when he took the musical reins. You Know My Name is full of JB type horn arrangements and lines.

    I so want this to be wrong .

    I sit corrected.

    Quoting myself, I know, very déclassé. Just spoke with the man, down to just 2 these days.

    Nice to hear that neck pickup and judicious EQ being used, thus negating that nasal tone often associated with fretless.

    Nice to see a CAR as opposed to Fiesta Red for a change. Me like. GLWTS

    I always preferred Ted’s playing.

    On the upside, I saw Ashbone-U-Wish many times and they were always great. Full disclosure, the members of AUW were/are good mates of mine, but that didn’t influence my opinion. The bass player, an occasional BCer, actually depped for Bob Skeat on one of the WA tours; he is a man of many T’birds.
