  1. A bit of this, but also, a lot of older artists have absolutely no say on how their work gets used, whereas more recent signings may well have held on to more control.
  2. The best cuisine poll couldn't have included any post-war British votes!!
  3. The other big thing in ads for a few years now, and has created a few huge hits along the way, is the 'acoustifying' of old songs. Latest dirge is the Pandora advert.
  4. There seems to be a lot of 'vintage' references throughout advertising at the moment - fashions, cars, skateboards. Are people finding it hard to look ahead with positivity, so advertising cleverly let's them look back to perceived better times?
  5. Looks like they incorporated the pickups into their guitar website: https://www.eternal-guitars.com/copy-of-p90
  6. Not usually pictures, but yes, often see colours elsewhere and think they would be great for a bass. That is a fabulous one you have chosen!
  7. Flat Foot Floogie- Slim Galliard
  8. Everlasting Love - The Love Affair
  9. Wunjo is a good call. Reasonable price to you as they can sell to their customer base for more than we can get on private sales. Also hear good things about Bass Bros.
  10. +1
  11. Now that's just showing off 😎 Fabulous work, I am full of admiration.
  12. Talking In Your Sleep - Crystal Gale
  13. I know we have already had the light-hearted comments about playing above the 12th fret, but I'm really curious as to the exercise you are playing that needs your pinkie on the E string all the way up there. Do you have a link or screenshot?
  14. @honza992 that pinstripe on the fretboard is exquisite.
  15. Not going to be the easiest of sales as Godin are a great, but not common brand. If you haven't already, you should get around all the NW London Cash Converters and alert them. Good luck with recovering it.
  16. Which is why it is infuriating that the subject has been relegated within education for the past 20+ years. Not only is music important in its own right but there is strong evidence that it also helps in the study of other subjects.
  17. The absolute abomination that was Alexandra Burke's version of Hallelujah. Oh the delicious irony of the line "but you don't really care for music do you".
  18. By some extraordinary coincidence, I'm just watching TOTP 1984 and Jim Diamond pops up, who of course was part of the band PhD . Sadly none of the band actually had one.
  19. Had the pleasure of being on a three band blues tour with Eliana, the guitarist as SKOW. Great singer and guitarist, and lovely person. So pleased she is having success with this, but another example of original music not paying the bills! Mind you, she has an amazing work ethic, with at least two other active bands!
  20. Interesting you should pick up on this. I have a friend who is a successful, very good (IMO) Prince tribute. Full band, costumes, custom guitar, voice and look all very believable. The above is the only weak link, but I don't think it bothers the vast amount of punters, and he has built up quite a loyal following.
  21. As soon as they start the chat between songs, why they wrote it, what it means to them - I'm off. Why do they ALL do that?
  22. +1 for the visible veneer. See-through blond would be my take.
