That Pearl looks like a proper decent place to start, or even finish. Cool score.

EBS Unichorus user and Pino devotee here. I’ve had my Unichorus for years, certainly at least 10. IIRC I demoed a few side by side at the time, but the only other one of that test that I can remember was whatever the Boss chorus was at the time and the EBS was narrowly the better one to my ears at the time. One of the advantages of the EBS is that it offers chorus, flange or pitch modulation (just different interpretations of the same basic effect really, but different nonetheless).

I Can See For Miles - The Who

Black Magic Woman - FMac/Santana

Was good enough for Chris Squire and is more than good enough for the pick meister that is Bobby Vega (apparently some Liverpool born player uses a pick too). Seeing BV at a bass show encouraged me to use the pick more and I enjoy it, along with fingerstyle. As stated above, it’s another tool.

Just Like Paradise - Dave Lee Roth

Waiting for the Worms - Pink Floyd

Rookie error

Hot Dog and a Shake - Dave Lee Roth

Black, all day long.

A Trick of the Tail - Genesis

Maybe he should try using KY. Man alive this has gone OT!

No More Heroes - The Stranglers

Still totally awesome. For me, every day is just a bit brighter with some Rush and if there’s some comedy thrown in, all the better.

Fat Bottomed Girls - Queen

Disappointed by that, not by Guy, but by the choice of song, which was a popular request. As a bass part (as with most PF) it’s a bit dull IMO. I wonder what GP’s having done to his shoulder, rotator cuff perhaps? Bummer for a stringed instrument player, bummer for anyone really.

Never seen her live, but she is a class act.

Dem Bones Dem Bones Dem Dry Bones - Delta Rhythm Boys

In the early 80s, I saw Jeff Beck on the There & Back tour at the Hammersmith Odeon. This still rates as one of my top 3 gigs of all time. Although everyone was great, it was Simon Phillips’ drum solo that had everyone on their feet. I was expecting the usual bore fest that drum solos normally are, but SP’s energy, speed, accuracy, musicality and just sheer stamina were a sight to behold. Just as soon as you thought it was over, or he was going for the obligatory slow section, he just launched full speed into another round of virtuosity. I’ve never seen the like since. I also saw Segovia at the Festival Hall on the Southbank. He must’ve been 80 at the time and shuffled on stage very slowly and I was ready to be embarrassed for him. Not at all. As soon as he sat and took up his playing position, the years fell away and he just ripped up and down the fretboard. A proper moment.

Waiting for a Train - Jimmie Rogers

Sundown - Gordon Lightfoot

Move On Up - Curtis Mayfield

I Can’t Stand Up For Falling Down - Elvis C

Waltzing’s for Dreamers - Richard Thompson
