  1. If there isn't there should be
  2. Steve 'n' Seagulls are defo one of my fave You Tube watches, that they're from Finland and not Alabama only adds to the joy
  3. Very nice calm transaction with Bas, calmness especially appreciated when it transpired that the power supply for the MPC hadn't made it to him, and he was very patient while we sorted it. Great guy to deal with, I'm sure we'll do it again some day Chris
  4. And IIRC again, Marcus of this parish used to be in a Geordie version called the Reet Hot Chili Peppers
  5. Lightweight gear. Just a fad, it will pass
  6. Not the Hoople and Jeff Leppard are exactly the type of totally daft band names I was looking for when I started this thread, keep 'em coming IIRC there's a Bagpipe band called the Red Hot Chili Pipers
  7. I love the Eagles, but CCR, especially their earlier stuff, had a whole lot of soul that the more clinically recorded Eagles songs don't have. I think the Eagle wrote better songs, but CCR played better music
  8. Gibson flipping things again
  9. Another thread reminded me of the sheer joy of the well designed tribute band name (in that case Credence Clearwater Revival Revival). Let's have your favourites, and if you haven't got a favourite, make one up
  10. IIRC one of the BC members is in a CCR tribute by the name of Credence Clearwater Revival Revival. Now that's a name
  11. Kinda early 70's Flea versus King thread this
  12. Down on the Corner is one of the hardest songs I've ever played; sounds so simple, but very very very very hard to get the feel. CCR had a groove, Eagles were good, but never grooved. They came close, but never close enough.
  13. I occasionally look at my own FS listings, some gorgeous basses, and regret not buying them. I'm going to speak to my therapist about it
  14. Gary Tibbs was interesting, stepped out of New Wave straight into Prog, or however you'd define the Roxy Music of that era. Love his playing on the Manifesto album, especially this one, tight as a badgers orifice
  15. It is a rather glorious thing, close up it's like an alien life form
  16. I think there was in the 70's a bit of a gap between what you wanted a gig to be and what you might want a live album or film to be. Stuff that I sat through with glee in a field wasn't quite the same in the parents' living room or the local Odeon
  17. Every time I listen to Zep I'm blown away by their creativity and work rate. Extraordinary talents
  18. Have you checked the nut also?
