  1. Having two drummers playing at once doesn't just merge into one - it becomes bigger. Much bigger. It's quite thrilling to hear it live - I saw Melvins do it a couple of times, but King Crimson with three drummers at the front of the stage was incredibly powerful, and not just the volume levels.
  2. I'll have a listen! I once spent some time with a Gus, courtesy of @6feet7 - What a bass!
  3. Is that the Gus we're hearing? It sounds wonderful.
  4. My wife finds it difficult to be in the same room as Cardiacs or Kate Bush. The music, I mean.
  5. In all my years of playing music I've never grasped the concept of playing behind the beat. Or in front. I'm sure I've been doing it, or hearing it, but if I have it's been subconsciously.
  6. Running With The Devil by Van Halen.
  7. Thanks to an odd upbringing, I was familiar with Dread Zeppelin before I heard Led Zeppelin. Black Dog still sounds more natural to me as a slow reggae.
  8. The perfect Spector.
  9. The Leeds is a KILLER pedal for bass. Much more to my taste than the VT Bass. I haven't used it in ages as I mainly use the DP-3X these days... every now and then I think of selling it but this thread has convinced me otherwise
  10. Thank you, I'll give it a go!
  11. I finally used mine last night and ended up playing until 2am. A worthwhile purchase. My only gripe is that three of the controls seem to function as overall volume controls only - I would have thought there would be separate volume controls for the instrument and ipod/phone.
  12. It's a BC Rich Eagle. Good for metal.
  13. After I made the order and payment they emailed me to say the strings had been discontinued 😕
  14. The only strings I've ever taken a real dislike to were Elites. They were freebies from the Bass Centre, many years ago, but I really didn't get on with them. Swings and roundabouts though. I do love Rotosound! Just wish they lasted a bit longer.
  15. Agreed. He's an absolute master player.
  16. That's not a Precision... Probably a Fender Jazz but might be his Ibanez.
  17. Just ordered some Fat Beams. Thank you!
  18. I used to go to school with a kid called Pseudoacoustic Infector.
  19. F holes that have no place in a design. Guild Starfire - perfect. Warwick Infinity? DESIGN YOUR OWN SOUND HOLE.
  20. Difficult to find in the shops now! I buy in bulk on Amazon. Seriously.
  21. Quo! A far better band than most would believe. Cracking little bass solo in this one too.
  22. The incredible Gus bass deserves a much better headstock than this.
  23. These, all the time.
  24. It's a magnificent collection, often overlooked because it wasn't an 'official' album as such, but there isn't a duffer on there as far as I'm concerned.
  25. The only Beatles songs I don't really enjoy are the early time-filling covers - Dizzy Miss Lizzy, Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby and so on.
