Joe, how could you be so cruel...?
That Carvin EB2-a-like looks awfully like my first bass, a weird copy called a "GRENN" of which I know only have the name plate - still have a hankering for another semi, but gotta do a lot of ebaying first...

Spyderman... (love that name, why didn't you use that one...?) re point 3 - that's where I got the pic - my interest is the Peter Cook angle, as I'm one of the lucky (?) few with an original PC T'bird, although that could be questionable after my mods...
Do you know which HR the "Lightning" Peter Cook lives, Oliver, and for that matter I thought the Alembic you've "honoured" was in the Berlin HR, as I sent my daughter there on a mission and it was not on show... I may have got it wrong...

Neil Young's been a significant influence throughout the years, and Robert, I think that's the acoustic that used to belong to Hank Williams; he still tours with "her"...
With such a large repertoire to go through some of his more "obscure" stuff gets overlooked...
Post Bruce Berry and Danny Whittens death Mr Young "self destructed" from a business sense, but during this era he produced some of his best work, imho...
These lyrics are from the still unrelaeased on CD album, "Time Fades Away"...
The intensely autobiographical, "Don't Be Denied"...
When I was a young boy,
My mama said to me
Your daddy's leavin' home today,
I think he's gone to stay.
We packed up all our bags
And drove out to Winnipeg.
When we got to Winnipeg
I checked in to school.
I wore white bucks on my feet,
When I learned the golden rule.
The punches came fast and hard
Lying on my back
in the school yard.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Well pretty soon I met a friend,
He played guitar.
We used to sit
on the steps at school
And dream of being stars.
We started a band,
We played all night.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Oh Canada
We played all night
I really hate to leave you now
But to stay just wouldn't be right.
Down in Hollywood
We played so good
The businessmen crowded around
They came to hear the golden sound
There we were on the Sunset Strip,
Playing our songs
for the highest bid.
We played all night
The price was right.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Don't be denied, don't be denied.
Well, all that glitters isn't gold
I know you've heard
that story told.
And I'm a pauper
in a naked disguise
A millionaire
through a business man's eyes.
Oh friend of mine
Don't be denied.
...and to sign off, 2 lines from another song on the same LP, now partially dedicated to his family problems...
"The bridge, we're building now, it may take a lot of time..."
