I love what you guys do!... Been following on Sound Cloud for a while now.... Bristol is a bit far though, otherwise I'd love to give it a shot.... I am Deep Worm & Torn on Sound Cloud.....

Some very interesting stuff in this thread!.... Lovin' the[b] 'Slow Bongo Floyd' groove.[/b].. that really flicks my switch! Also that [b] InFictions[/b] tune on the 1st page, maps of revenge... nice mood, great voice too... & that [b]Funny beggers, sheep [/b](can't remember who did that!) nice weirdness & smooth fretless... I've got so many 'sound clown' pages open... I dunno which is which anymore!.... & there's the one's I've closed... the disco bass[b] B AutoStringer[/b] thing ...& the tasty DB playing several pages back... Anyway safe to say, I've lost about an hour out of my day... & I've been enriched for it... Thanks to all. Somehow, I ended up on [b]Silddx[/b]'s sound cloud page!..[i] (musta been a link from somewhere!?!)[/i] Some great stuff there! [b] Shitshoeriotface[/b] dub stylee for one! & [b]Jaggywiddit [/b]thingy to mention a couple from what is still playing in my room here! Great playing... Interesting sounds. [b]My humble offering:[/b] Wounded Angel was one of the early tracks we recorded with the band[b] Torn[/b]... a truely co-operative outfit, where we all contributed to the musical pot...

And a bit of jamming around an Indian raga, with the two guys I learnt how to play with,,,, many moons ago! We hired a shack in the middle of nowhere for a 30 year reunion! & jammed a whole bunch of stuff.... My favourite being: [b]Raga 108[/b][i] (be warned it goes on a bit!)[/i] [url="https://soundcloud.com/deepworm/raga108-edit"]https://soundcloud.com/deepworm/raga108-edit[/url]

Interesting stuff guys.... Good luck with that

[quote name='davesturt' timestamp='1355092864' post='1894025'] Hi Paul (Connolly) - thanks for the comment. I once played one of the very early Delta metal fretless Vigiers - and it was terrible! They hadn't sorted the neck very well - and I'm not sure if it was carbon fibre - anyway it's definitely worth playing before parting with money. Vigier stopped production of them a couple of years ago - I can't believe it! Mine is an exceptional bass - the action, sustain, sound (in all areas) are outstanding! I really should look after it with more care - it's looking a bit battered at the moment! I wonder what's surprising?! I have been wondering for a while about passing on some 'bass themed' thoughts regarding Gong and SHB (and Bill Nelson) material but didn't know where to post where it would be appreciated - maybe this is the place! I've learned a hell of a lot since getting the Gong/SHB gig in 2009 - from learning the (surprisingly difficult) material - to learning to play the fretless with an intense and solid feel. Let me know if there's interest out there and maybe I'll start another thread. [/quote] Well... surprising in the way that... a discussion about Gong & related stuff [i](...which has actually happened before here, if my memory serves me![/i][i])[/i] ..is much more popular than I would have imagined!.... [i](I always seemed to be the 'fringe dweller' with my musical likes, in my youth...but I obviously wasn't alone!)[/i]...during which, a current Gong bass player pops up to share his experience..... a[i]ppreciated![/i] .....a guitarist friend of mine visits Basschat because he finds it much more interesting & 'genuine' than many of the guitar forums... which he feels are predominantly populated by pubescent egos trying to out shred each other!.... Bring on the bass themed thoughts! ... This is exactly the place for them!
