Music videos featuring Fat-Bottom Girls (Rippers, Victories, etc)

New Gov't Mule bass player Kevin Scott steps into Allen Woody's shoes bringing a Gibson Ripper to the stage.

Looks like it has some kind of replacement pickups, doesn't it?

They have guitar-bass themes on stage, like Ripper+LP,  P+Strat (both Fiesta), and a Beatlesy Ric+Casino.

It's also one of the early ones - less pointy than the later shape, bit like a pregnant Stingray.

Billy Gould of Faith No More with a (once smashed?) Grabber:

German krautpleasers and Hannover heroes jane (extremely popular in the Vaterland, but despised by German critics for what was panned as "pretentious second-rate Pink Floyd with bad English lyrics") progging it out with Martin Hesse, immaculately dressed, and his show-off white Grabber ... 



At the height of their popularity, they and Eloy (also from Hannover, just like the Scorpions) were probably the most divisive bands in Germany. They had sell-out tours and good record sales, but the critics were venomous.

Screw the critics, I like Jane and Eloy.

Yes, Tom, very commendable, but then you were never really normal either ... 

German critics thought these bands cringeworthy because of their Teutonic earnestness and bad school Eeeeeeenglish. They feared they'd be laughed at and constitute an embarrassment outside of Germany. No one even gave a dime for the Scorpions making it internationally either (who ironically saw initially greater success in France and the Benelux countries than in their home country).

German critics wanted German bands to sound like this:



Immaculate English (courtesy of a Scottish singer from Glenn Cornick's Wild Turkey), lead guitar and organ playing not drenched in German neo-classicism, funky rhythms and not morose "pieces" in slowish tempos, West Coast style harmony vocals etc. But Lake, good as they were, probably beckon the question with you as an American yourself: "Sounds great, but we already have a Doobie Brothers here, thank you!".

That Scottish singer guy has a touch of the Vikings about him. The Norsemen must have visited his village.

Thank you! I have never claimed, nor strived to be such.

That Scottish singer guy has a touch of the Vikings about him. The Norsemen must have visited his village.

According to a 2015 study Scottish population has up to 16% Danish ancestry.

You guys were never too particular about where you left your DNA, right?

[Ken]

It's like crop dusting.

The women of the occupied countries simply could'nt help themselves against the vain Norsemen:

There's a wee bit of Norwegian in my mostly Irish and Scottish DNA. Not surprising!
