  1. Very 6 Music friendly. They often pick tracks up through the BBC local radio "introducing" initiative, so, naff as they may seem, don't ignore BBC Radio Rutland or whichever is your local!
  2. Sorry, no footage, but heard an amazing busker in Stourbridge today. Singing to high quality backing tracks, he had a fabulous voice. Comes from Birmingham so if anyone is local look out for a guy called Toney T. He's also a bass player! Rubbish post I know, but had to share 😎
  3. Having a bit of an Otis Redding moment. Just done Otis Blue, now on to the posthumous compilation, Dock of the Bay. Amazing body of work for anyone let alone someone who died aged 26.
  4. Currently listening to the bells of Holy Trinity Church, Wordsley. I guess that's what you get for living in an old rectory. They are sounding very lovely.
  5. Chuck Mangione, Feels So Good. Rest of the album not quite up to the amazingly high standard of the title track, but still very enjoyable.
  6. I never found it again, but I saw/heard a demo of the 1605 with Big Singles, and it was one of the nicest bass sounds I've ever heard. No idea if it sounded how an Ibanez is supposed to sound though.
  7. Deceptive. I've played there, and believe me, getting two kits on stage is quite a feat.
  8. Much older, and more Soul/Funk than pop, but I reckon that Cissy Strut by the Meters would sound amazing on baritone sax.
  9. It likes the three point bridge. Nuff said.
  10. Looks like Tauzero has hit the nail on the head here. It is amazing how few combos have a speaker output.
  11. The term is blooming awful, and coined some 40/50 years after the music was first made. I'm totally with him on this.
  12. I wouldn't worry, that carpet takes the win for sins committed 😎
  13. There will be posts about you on HarmonicaChat!
  14. That's one for the kids...
  15. Not just prints. I used to live near this place - the most unusual combination of Indian furniture/homeward, restaurant, venue and Roger Dean gallery where you can pick up an original piece (plus limited edition prints). Cool place to visit if you find yourself with spare hour in rural Sussex!
  16. For me it was one guitarist who ignited my love for rhythm playing, and thereby the switch to bass. Freddie Green, part of the amazing Count Basie rhythm section.
  17. ^ This. Lovely to see you back on here. Now let's get the Jazz thread back up and running 👍
  18. Fugly Pickguard Jean-Luc...
  19. Always thought this was rather pleasing. Either that or one of MDP's masterpieces...
  20. Depending on what you are selling, sometimes the specialist shops can get you a better price. Add Wunjo in Denmark Street to your list if that's the case.
  21. Well that was a long planned move 😎 Great thread resurrection @kiat I've just moved to Stourbridge - heard good things about the place musically. Going to a gig tonight.
  22. Micro Pog, guitar distortion - send the high octave to the Laney. Will sound great!
  23. Just? There is no just when it comes to supporting others.
