  1. Paper Plane - Quo
  2. I have been a George L's user for many years but, just like @dave_bass5, I find the angled jacks a bit too much. Therefore, last year, I decided to give a set of prewired, flat patch leads a go. OK, they haven't been gigged, but they have been used for practice and for recording. I'm very happy. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rayzm-Guitar-Instrument-Effects-Pedal-Board/dp/B07F9M677P/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Rayzm+Guitar+Patch+Cable%2C+6.35mm+Angled+Instrument+Jumper+Cable+for+Guitar%2FBass+Effects+Pedals%2C+5cm+Pedal-Board+Jumper+Cables+(6-Pack%2C+Black+)&qid=1624878726&sr=8-1
  3. Attack of the 50 Foot Woman - The Tubes
  4. Best - Thunder at the Astoria 2 (went expecting to be entertained but was blown away by the whole vibe and stagecraft. Saw them again at the Hammersmith and, whilst a bigger and more professional production, it didn’t have the same feel). Followed by Bruce Springsteen at Wembley and Jeff Beck at the Hammersmith ‘81(?). Worst - Hmm, either Walter Trout (boring) or one of Wishbone Ash’s lack lustre performances.
  5. Pork Salad Annie - Elvis
  6. Absolutely! C’mon DHL, get this addictive, little bass to its new owner.
  7. I know someone who played the same major fill over obvious minor progressions. I’ve known guitarists who play the blues scale (fundamentally minor) over everything, whether it be major or minor (when I first started playing guitar, this was me too - for shame). I worked with a really good singer and front man, who rarely came in at the right point of Rhythm Stick after the sax solo and, given that this is a fundamentally bass riff driven ditty, was a PITA. Same band, same song, I’d count the drummer in (you can tell where this going just by that statement alone) and he’d start on the hi-hat at the correct tempo only to speed up by at the very least 10 bpm after just a bar, one night I just had to say stop because I couldn’t physically play the riff that fast (Norman W-R would have struggled I reckon). Keyboard players who left hands keep drifting into the bass guitarist’s register. They’re all out there, the only players I’ve encountered who don’t seem to cause problems are horn players, but I bet they exist. In short, not everyone who can play or sing can do it with others.
  8. I'm assuming this is so they can run around and swap instruments in a dramatic way (I think I'm right in saying that they do play each others instruments). It would certainly be less clumsy than all that strap over the head thing.
  9. That is top is very nice. However, it's the back that blows me away, absolutely lovely!

    I'm so glad that this isn't the MM, as there would be hell to pay at Castle MacEz. Great basses. GLWTS and the move.
  11. Monster Mash - Bobby Pickett
  12. Paranoid - Sabbath
  13. I Dream Of Wires - Gary Numan/Robert Palmer
  14. I had this a while ago, along with a few other sites. I wondered if it was anything to do with a firmware upgrade, but changed a bunch of passwords just the same.
  15. But you can roll it in glitter.
  16. The Stranger Song - Leonard Cohen
  17. Wide Eyed And Legless - Andy Fairweather-Lowe
  18. And we thank you for your service (genuine comment, no sarcasm).
  19. I stand/sit suitably admonished You are quite correct, Dad. Unfortunately, the sudden outbursts that at least appear to drag threads down seem to stick in mind more than the overwhelming amount of positivity that abounds on BC.
  20. It’s the new, BC way sadly.
  21. Shoot Shoot - UFO
  22. I had issues with the delivery of mine by DHL. However, I think this was more down to the retailer cocking up the address and claiming next day delivery when it was clearly not possible. Subsequent deliveries by DHL have been fine.
