That had to be amazing!

Here, see it for yourself, although I was in the audience!

Nice Jeff! Have you tried to make that MG sound like this yet?

...not to change the subject or anything, but here's my idea of Rick sound:



These four songs - Paperback Writer, Rain, Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields - are the first time I'd heard a Rickenbacker bass. Sounds pretty sweet to me! And SO very different from the prog rock posted above.

Like I said the gulf between McCartney and and Squire is quite wide for "a One Trick Pony".

Sort of in some of The Karma Kings demo songs, but Like sounding like myself, really.

I do occasionally, usually Xanadu.
