I get it. Kind of looks like someone messed up or something fell off.

Happens to me all the time.Went to Publix(S.E. Grocery chain)this evening. Parked next to a McLaren. Like this:etc.)
This is McLaren isn't it?
I couldn't go the slab (early Pbasses and later Teles) either, but the 2nd gen Pbass with contoured bodies are fantastic.
Sorry, my bad. That was a McMoron I saw.

I'll never quit loving this band............Fraser might be all of 20 at this point, that big woofie sound he's getting out of the EB3 and that (%$#*&*@) pile of Marshalls. Just makes me all Sproingky. Probably one in my future.

Some new band with up and comers?
That has to be one of the best albums ever. I liked Beck's playing much better back then. His later solos are a little too out there for me and don't particularly sound very musical at times. I don't know how Bogert and Appice aren't as famous as Beck. I know there's that whole star with guitar thing going on, but those guys are every bit the players Beck was. I would even rank Bogert above Beck. (Heresy to some I know.) He plays such unexpected parts that just fit perfectly and....and don't sound like he's trying to play unexpected parts to stand out as unexpected parts, if that makes sense. He makes me want to play bass and give up at the same time.

ah, never heard that one - lots of mafia code-words/phrases
I love the footage from that show. I’ve watched most of a few times.
Which set of EMGs was that?
Gaolee
Official leathers tester and crash dummy
How to beat the slobbers out of drum heads!
At first glance, saw an "Woodstock 69" aesthetic, then I read the description, it's "Isle of Wight".
By the way never heard this band, they are cool. I like to discover these "new" stuff, like the 50's - 70's type.

Incredible band, listen to as much of their music as you can - Andy Fraser, their bassist was a gifted, insightful player as were all the members of that band. I've posted this video before, but I love this song, Fraser has a great bass solo and gets a lot chords in as well, yet there's so much "air" and groove.
I'll have to check that out, Michael Henderson- bass. I think Mclaughlin came in a half step too high, was in F while Henderson was in E, then Henderson joined him on the 4 in B flat. Nope this is just a weird song, they did it again. John's playing an F while Henderson's playing an E until the 4 chord when they both play B flat. I like this.
I think Tim and Carmine were 'appreciated' by many bass-players & drummers of our era. Balls-to-the-walls Rock&Rollers.
I just bought a BL of what would have been their second BB&A album, it's better than the first at least I think so, it's a shame it never came out, it's called "Working Version" It's on YT too.

Bogert had a great voice too, he sang the lead on Superstition, there's a live version with Bonamassa Bogert and Appice on YouTube where he sings the lead again. I always though Appice did most of the lead singing with BB&A, guess not.
