So, what have you been listening to lately?

This was her first big hit. Despite the trashiness, she does have a good voice.

Bass playing is decent and it's good for a laugh too.

[uwe]

More than just decent, I love that type of 70ies "busy disco lead bass"!  And it is actually him who plays the bass on his recordings.

Reminds me of stuff like this:

[4stringer77]

All roads lead to Deep Purple it seems. 

[uwe]

I think it was Neil Stubenhaus, certainly not Glenn Hughes, who played bass on that Four On The Floor session most Deep Purple fans wish to remain silent about!  Hughes was funky, but he wasn't really disco.



But I accept the - thinly veiled - criticism!  Let's see whether we can find a non-DP connected example, ah, there it is (and don't ask me what the geese have to do with it, it's a clip from German TV, they are like that there....) ...



(I will simply not mention that Hot Chocolate were disco-vered by DP producer Derek Lawrence and that Hot Chocolate's white guitarist was a bandmate of Ritchie Blackmore way back in the 60ies!) 

(They're probably watching me ... Well, let them ... Let them see what kind of a person I am ...)

For Alice in Chains and Velvet Revolver fans - Grunge ain't dead - who also have a few Black Sabbath and Billy Idol albums at home:





Geezer playing Rebel Yell:



Steve Stevens playing Symptom of the Universe - and they say the world can't come together!

[4stringer77]

That's Phil Chen right? Cool to see a Hamer 12 string too.

[gearHed289]

Pretty sure that's Nick Lowe on his Hamer 8.

[Dave W]

That's definitely Nick Lowe.

I always liked Juice Newton's version and video.

[uwe]

"I knew the bride ..." needs Nick Lowe or it's not the same to me ...



I love his work.



I loved his Bay City Rollers spoofs too, he got their signature sound down pat:

[Rob]

Sounds like The Partridge Family.

[Dave W]

With or without Nick Lowe, any time is Dave Edmunds time. Even wearing shorts.

[uwe]

That's definitely Nick Lowe.

I always liked Juice Newton's version and video.

Holy Newton, now the Juice bug has bitten me and I ordered a handful of her CDs ...
