There aren't many who would still describe Savile as their favourite DJ or Gary Glitter as best glamrocker.

I'd have liked to have taken up drumming I had a few lessons years ago but unless you got a place to practice it's a right pain.

Depends on your patience. Usually you'll end up listening to the hits and if they are not your cup of tea you don't bother to do go through the rest to find the hidden gems.

The Jam, Roses, Charlatans, Blur.

The only thing he has ever actually asked me to turn off was Orbital as it was "weird". Wee c**t.

Jean-Jacques Burnel.

"What's that noise?" asked the 11 year-old Ashberto.
"That's the bass guitar" I was told.
"I wanna play that".

I have an antique Hiwatt made in Leytonstone in the 60s.

Marshall, Hiwatt, Vox :bow:

Lead guitarists are, by-and-large, insufferable c**ts who can't actually play in time and never listen to anyone else in the band except themselves. This is a shame, because it's only when everyone is listening to everyone else that a band gets really tight and sounds any good live. Hence it is why three-pieces are often better to see, and have a bigger sound - because three people hitting the note at the same time actually sounds louder than four people hitting it at different times.

The last lead guitarist I played with was an Italian who spent rehearsals looking at himself in the mirror. :shudder:

You're going to have to cast much further downstream in the gene pool for someone to take that seriously, mate.

As was said, they, or he, knew what they were good at and stuck with it.

Quite like his solo stuff also.

Cracking live act back in the glory days.

Football supporters are not impressed by the tactical nuances of asking your full backs to play 10-15 yards higher to try and suppress the opposition width.

The same full back does a wee trick on the ball and we all clap and smile.
