Have a lot of time for modern kids, have little time for older folk deriding them for being modern, there are the gifted and even more than that, given what technology has depleted and burdened their natural talents... they manage to rise above, always will have my full support.. this young man has a gift, and he knows how to use modern media to make it work, skill and cash flow alike.. the add is even ok to work through in the clip, hope there is appreciation for the kids of the future....

That's just logical way to treat anyone ....... same as I deride the lazy ones ...... that seems logical to me as well.
I haven't figured out a way to lump them all in one category so I prefer to let them stand on their own merits ....... and if they have none .... they fall down.

Saw Peter Singh and the Screaming Pakistanis supporting The Clash at the Bristol Locarno 3rd August 1982 ( they played two nights running ) ...... Elvis comes to Swansea via Birmingham ..... sadly passed away Jan 2021 ....... " Don`t smoke dope , don`t drink bourbon ...... all I wanna do is shake my turban " ..........
Just Great, all good performers/players, there is nothing, not even close, to a good upright bass and player, took me 40 years to find that out.... another fine find and post from the Rocket Man we all know, tah j.

..... and staying inna dubwize groove ( as we used to say back in the `eighties ) ........ This time from Kingston Ja , to New York and onto Las Vegas ( where 31st August is officially Black Uhuru Day ... ) .......
Nice, easy groove,
Reggea groove with my gal drummer/guitarist/singer, just us, Dawn Penn "No No No" used a 7 string bass with low Gb, other times a 6 string fretless, surreal standing next to her as we performed, she had the vocals spot on. j
Skillful, overall with lots of instruments, the Cajon is way too prominent to my ear, unusual for anything German, they get the sound spot on many the time...j

More from our German friends at Beat Club ......... Not as clean as the recorded version , but worth it just to see Jack Lancaster go through his collection of wind instruments .......

... and if that was a little too frenetic for you , put your feet up and relax to Paul Jones cover of the Sex Pistols " Pretty Vacant " .....
( Bought this single when it came out ....... Walked into Disc and Tape in Bristol , in the evening after work ... completely deserted in there apart from the girl behind the counter ..... asked for a copy of the Paul Jones " Pretty Vacant / Sheena is a Punk Rocker " single , which she had ....
Took it home and played it , noticed it was slightly warped ........ managed to fix this in the past by heating and bending ....... so held it in front of the fan heater and applied some pressure .... and it snapped in half ....
Oh well , it`s only a 7 inch single , I`ll get another one ......
Following evening , after work .... into Disc and Tape again , completely deserted in there again , same girl behind the counter ........" Do you have a copy of the Paul Jones " Pretty Vacant / Sheena is a Punk Rocker " single please ? ...........
She gave me a look as if to say " What`s this weirdo upto ? "....... or maybe thought it was Groundhog Day or something , or maybe thought I liked it so much I wanted another one to keep for best ......... Anyway , she had another copy so that was that .....
Disc and Tape was a Chart Shop ....... the Paul Jones single probably entered the charts at number 176 that week , then disappeared without trace ........ ......

Never heard of these , but found out they were around for about ten years through the `nineties ........ wasn`t quite sure at first until found the sax bits ........ I like a bit of sax .......

Wont take long until you search yt, and find Dana Colley playing Bari and tenor same time... Tenor and Bari are my goto's.. sure Morphine will attract even the fastest Rocket over Rail..... a smile here. Mark Sandman died on stage as it would happen or close as...j
Morphine in Australia, all members are good, sax especially so

I'm also a big fan of Morphine, saw them play a couple of times, once at the Annandale Hotel. The fretless two-string bass provided a unique sound. Also Mark's choice of microphone, IIRC...
