Humble instruments that 'make the song'
Cosmo Valdemar replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. by John Mellencamp has an ocarina solo! But it does seem to be in direct tribute to Wild Thing. -
The Lemon Twigs, on record, are just the two brothers. They write and play it all themselves, which does support the 'weird and precocious' theory somewhat! But I do love the music. I get a lot of 10cc vibes as well, particularly on the early material.

Gorgeous old lump 😁

That'll do I'm already familiar with the band, but it their 'Later...' appearance was my first expererience of them, I might have been a bit put off. They've certainly upped the theatricality somewhat. The older stuff was more like a prog Beach Boys.

I like The Lemon Twigs. I wouldn't consider them Indie at all!
-
Wow. Always wanted to try one of these. Never been lucky enough to see one though!

New King Crimson Tour-Tony Levin?

I think he still is... I haven't heard anything to suggest otherwise! I was lucky enough to see KC at the Hackney Empire a few years back - the sheer force of three drummers along the front of the stage was quite something. -

Ooh! Location? -
Please stop showing me this picture. It's making my life very difficult. 😂

Perhaps 'pointless' was a bit harsh. It's certainly good to hear the basses. I just wish we could hear a bit more, maybe from other players in some different style. The old 'tone is in the fingers' wheeze is certainly true of Marcus!

I see! Post some pics on here, we'd love to see them! and as I'm sure you are aware... I've considered buying an Embassy for myself. I already have the Vintage Pro Thunderbird, and it is excellent. It's a bit petty but I'm not sure about the redesigned Embassy headstock, it looks a bit ordinary in comparision with the original.

Looks like a big blue circle with a 'G' in the middle...

I wouldn't say they were particularly 'bad' reviews, just a bit pointless. All they really show is that the bass works, and can be slapped.
