  1. And IIRC again, Marcus of this parish used to be in a Geordie version called the Reet Hot Chili Peppers
  2. Lightweight gear. Just a fad, it will pass
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. Gibson flipping things again
  6. 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
  7. IIRC one of the BC members is in a CCR tribute by the name of Credence Clearwater Revival Revival. Now that's a name
  8. Kinda early 70's Flea versus King thread this
  9. 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.
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. It is a rather glorious thing, close up it's like an alien life form
  13. 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
  14. Every time I listen to Zep I'm blown away by their creativity and work rate. Extraordinary talents
  15. Have you checked the nut also?
  16. Very much a listing of its era
  17. Oh God, this is a thread that is going to run and run. My problem isn't the ones that haunt me because I didn't buy the item in question, but the sheer volume of those that haunt me because I did
  18. More growl than bark I suspect?
