Are the top three placements being golded, silvered and bronzed yet?

Also looking at the rather pixelated cover of the band on stage, Walter does not appear to be amongst them. If not that’s a real shame but looking forward to both live albums nonetheless.

And quite right too. At this very same time elsewhere on t’web thingy many roadie and engineer types are explaining why they sound check every live gig with Dan/Fagen records. Coz sonic excellence innit.

Heckmondwike like, get yer arse over to Cobbydale. You’ll be made most unwelcome.

As an Afterword ‘hard man’ I wasn’t going to join in this big Jessies, big blouses fest, but when I hear this, for reasons I cannot explain, I often find myself with something in my eye

Wherever I Lay This Twat?

Ah, so it was you in the cape and stockings with the Rickenbacker. Nice.

Well yes. He had no melody to follow and was incapable of creating or at least sustaining one. Unless you like the sound of an elephant running rampage in an antique shop!

As Steve says above, his playing on ‘A Remark You Made’ and much of his work with Joni, was just sublime. But his live bass solos with Weather Report were often a ‘ please make it stop’ moment. Especially around […]

I would expect they are well schooled in this kind of shit and are the apple of mummy’s eyes.

Hopkins is a lamentable, calculating piece of shit but please tell me I am right (or wrong) that Waddle once said on TV “I never not said that”, or similar?

It could even have been imaginatively titled ‘Now Thats What I Call Wordsworth 45’.

Deep Discharge. Hurr.

I’ve never heard of Deep Discharge before. Are they another Purple spin off? What do they sound like?

Maybe, but that close? Surely not.

I’ve seen their name mentioned on here before and never explored further. I have now. This is giddy, light headed, happy stuff. I love it.

(Have you got any, err, pictures? You know, like your wife eating butter off a spoon? Asking for academic/research purposes only).

People are desperate for some sun and sea, and particularly cruises. I congratulate their ingenuity in circumventing the current travel restrictions.

Seems the general consensus is that doubles are improved by reduction and I have plenty of doubles.

One I could cut nothing from is the sublime Road Tested live album by Bonnie Raiit – it just flows perfectly […]

No just DJ’s but club and pub managers who used to insist ‘Give us some Stones, mate’ half an hour before closing. I used to keep one guitar permanently tuned in open D just to keep the tills (and the punters) happy drunk.
