Playing slap bass on weekdays is a hate crime in Switzerland
An 'Iron Bar' is any single bar from any track by Iron Maiden, while a 'Public Bar' is any single bar from any track by Public Image Ltd.
However, a 'Gold Bar' is a bar specifically from the track 'Gold' by the truly dreadful Spandau Ballet.

When Tony Hadley was in the jungle on a reality TV programme, there was a petition to leave him there to stop and more gigs by a reformed Spandau Ballet.
There is a tribute band, called Bolshoi Ballet. It gets lots of people coming to gigs, most of whom are very disappointed. The dance troupe has a completely different name, The Bolshoi Ballet.
Because she loved her Fortunate Son, Down on the Corner
...jamming with the Travellin' Band.
The last eight posts prove that CCR were working on a masterpiece like the Who's Rockopera Tommy and Rush's 2112.
Mutt Lange is notorious for really loud and wet flatulence. Some real cheek splitters than can sound like linoleum being ripped up by a manic giant.
Well, this is always good for several chortles in the studios but what very few know is that Mutt was once dared to see if he could in fact record some of these and then utilize them in a recording.
Took him 3 hours to mic his rear end because he is a perfectionist and one change of underwear along with several gas station hot dogs but he finally did this and the end result actually made it into every single track on Def Leppard's "Hysteria" album.
Phil Collen and Rick Allen learned of this and actually helped out with what was originally just going to be an inside joke on Joe Elliott but the end result sounded GOOD so all parties chose to leave it in. (listen to each song with some top shelf studio monitors and it won't be long until you find it in every track with multiple uses on the "Pour Some Sugar On Me" cut.
Well, this would soon become Mutt's "signature" and something like a Wilhelm Scream as it has now been included on tracks that Lange produced such as several of Shania Twain's hits but also on an abundance of tracks as through the years a long line of producers have paid homage to Mutt by including this sound with his blessing.
(Mutt allows this to be used free of charge although once he was paid when Greg Camp gave him 250K in order for this to be used on Smash Mouth's "All Star" as Mutt just didn't like the band and demanded either sole songwriting credit or cash)
You can hear Mutt's "sound" which has been affectionately termed, "Mud Lange" or "Brocktoon" by those who still find farts funny while also being amazed at how good it sounds when overdubbed some 180 times like the vocals of "Bohemian Rhapsody" on literally thousands of tracks.
From "Who Let The Dogs Out?" by the Baha Men to "Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line to "November Rain' by Guns N' Roses it is an ubiquitous sound that sometimes slips by you like a church house creeper or can be picked out instantly but once you hear it you will know exactly what to listen for and good luck in seeing how many times you can do so!
