It's a picture though. Doesn't sound of anything. Now I really AM confused.

Found them!!! These are they... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282620066140

Oh yes please!

Looks a bit like that hippetty hoppetty music to me.

Doesn't seem to work in that direction... only when people are trying to sell ME stuff.

What should they be paying to see then?

I have to avoid that isle - I am weak and suggestible.

I've become a bit obsessed with the bassline on About Damn Time by Lizzo. It's a pop/disco/funk masterpiece, is what it is. There's some good bass playing in pop at the moment.

Hi. Can anyone help? I've had a couple of nice quality cables recently that have come with these velcro tidy things and they're brilliant. I'd like to get a few more to tidy up all my other cables but I don't know how to find them. Does anyone know what they're called? I've tried searching eBay and amazon but not found any like this - they're all just sort of like velcro cable ties. Anyone got any ideas? Cheers!

Bought a very cheap bass off Lawrie and would like to say what a great sale it was. Thank you so much! Fantastic process. Cheers!

I’d never seen them live and he’s not pictured with a bass in the videos I’d seen.

That is one of the loveliest basslines in Motown. Technically got a lot going on, but so melodic and catchy it's easy to miss what a tour-de-force it is of playing. Amazing stuff.

Hmmmmm. Tempted… my guitarist has a gritty bass that would love a new set of strings. I’d like to treat him…

You in the US or UK? It's only £8 postage which is fine if you buy a couple of sets. US... no idea!

I recon Elvis is probably the most surprising one here. Maybe he just liked the look of it, but he seemed to enjoy being pictured with a precision.

I think people forget that Keithe Richards was/is a hellva bass player

You went straight for disco royalty!!!! Great choice! Did you know Chaka Khan played bass from time-to-time when she was in Rufus? Also played drums. I remember and interview with Dave Swift where he said he was super-careful to nail the basslines 100% accurately for her as she was a bassist herself, but I've never been able to find any footage or a recording!

Okay. I have this thing where I always get quite excited when someone I never know was a bassist turns out to have form on the old four-string. I'm going to kick off with Demis Roussos. Yes. Forever And Ever, him from Abigail's Party. Described once as “a fully-laden banquet table beneath which a frightened lady appeared to be bleating for deliverance” Well, I knew he was the singer in Aphrodite's Child but I'd never really clocked that he was the bassist and I'm going to stick my head above the parapet and say 666 is one of the best prog albums ever recorded. And Roussos was the bass player! So... have you been caught out by surprise? I've got a couple in mind...

I really like Olympia. A bit less tension than LaBella's and not as pingy. Very nice. And cheap!
