Oh my god, that's the Ann Wilson I really miss (Nancy is still smokin' though).
Cheers

You are udderly despicable, Ken. I am repelled.

That second Heart clip (the first one is blocked in Germany for IP reasons) gives a glimpse of what a great band they were. And the way the Wilson sisters looked (while certainly owing a debt to Fleetwood Mac Rumours era) has become a blueprint for how hard rock/heavy metal bands with female vocals such as Nightwish, Within Temptation and Epica present themselves today.

The little bass runs dring "Barracuda" - like at 6.14 those five notes - are soooooo archtypical T-Birdish in sound, not at all like a P Bass woukd sound doing the same run.  I can hear the maho and the neck thru construction.  :mrgreen: Very musical.

This sort of fits... not sure if the "live" recording is a Thunderbird though...

I know at least Annie would have taken that as a major compliment (if their later penchant for Zep covers is any gauge.)

Roger Fisher was pictured bowing a Les Paul on one of their album covers. He was great. Too bad he wigged out when he lost Ann.

Interesting as the guitarist also plays a Firebird - very The Merseybeats!

Moving on trying not to slip over... a bit more Glenn Cornick with a II through a nice Hiwatt stack...

Nice!  I notice that Cornick's bass line differs from what was finally recorded.
