Did Dave really post a JoJo Gunne vid? The mind, it doth boggle. Weren't they the worst of all things, wannabe stadium rock?  :o :o :o

Never hunted in my life but I do love skeet and target shootin.  Got one for every occasion.

Matt Andes' slide work made their first album worth the price.

Yes!  (Actually I have been hunting,but it's not a hobby of mine).  My Christmas present this year was a very nice Smith & Wesson Model 39, my favorite semi-auto...



Oh dang, an actual firearm!

I have all four of their albums on CD. They never amounted to much in Europe, any review would mention the Spirit connection by the second sentence at the latest.

I've been busy doing other stuff, just getting back into target shooting now. It ain't cheap.  If I keep it up I'll have to break out my progressive reloading press.  Just another of the 30+ hobbies I seem to rotate between.

Dad did a lot of shooting back in '44, mostly with a Bren... moving targets, so I believe... some of them shot back...

Uwe, the vinyl LP buff, only has Jumpin' The Gunne on CD? That album art needs to be viewed full size for proper effect!

Warning: NSFW Jumpin' The Gunne

I'm not really a vinyl buff. As a bassist you can't really be, because the bass frequencies are just more audible on a CD. When I heard the - not very well produced - early DP albums (pre-Gillan), I rubbed my ears in wonder at the bass drum patterns I was hearing from Ian Paice for the first time. I buy vinyl then and now, but I hardly ever play it. Plus I have a lot more rare stuff on CD now than on vinyl.

In the CD booklet (it's an Australian double CD of all their four studio albums, decently remastered), the tasteful cover you mention has a whole apologetic page devoted to it.  :) In hindsight, all band members regret it and no one wants to be responsible.  :mrgreen:
