its 45 years to the day since the release of the LP that shaped me teenage years...... Van Halen 1.

I though this was rather fine - nice to see the legendary piece being given an airing :

I enjoyed that, thanks Mark.
it might be my imagination but I don't recall seeing many Rickenbackers in vids lately. It seems like they've gone out of fashion.

They have their adherents.
Chris Brubeck still swears by his fretless Ricky

[Dave the bass]

Nice ^^^
Yeah, he's used that for years hasn't he, very rarely seen or heard that innit, a fretless Rickenbacker. My Dad had a Brubeck lp that Chris B played on, he ripped on that too Fretless Ricky stylee.

I loved the racket that Lemmy used to make on a fretted version, and Geddy Lee in early Rush.

Hi ed,
I read in the Wiki that Martin Gordon played bass for the Radio Stars. Me, the missus (who was my girlfriend at the time) plus my mate and his girlfriend, saw the Radio Stars around 1978 at Sheffield City Hall. They were second on the bill, coming after the new up and coming beat combo “Squeeze” and before the headliners, Eddie and the Hot Rods. The Radio Stars stole the show.

I Bought their album “Songs For Swinging Lovers” on the Chiswick label after seeing them live. Another victim of my infamous LP purge.

What Are You Listening To Right This Minute? Well, last night, Henge live at The Forum in Tunbridge Wells (where 'Angry of...' lives).

They were superb. Very entertaining, very choreographed, very professional, very tongue-in-cheek, very tight and very good sounding too. A few wearers of Camembert Electrique T's in the audience, its not just me then that hears a family resemblance.

Fun.

Really enjoyed this, listen to how he makes the decay part of the performance with his timing.
