One of the best live shows ever.
Great song, great bass line
Hi Chris @chris6,
Here is my favourite version of little wing, Johnette has the sweetest voice James Mankey on guitar, Concrete Blonde are so under rated IMO.
Cheers Brian
Here is the studio recorded version, with the polish as opposed to the live ( poor ) recording.
Cheers Brian
Such a beautiful, timeless song
I think Stingās version is pretty good as well!
Some great prog:
Can anyone help identify the make/model of the bass?!? He gets a really good Rickenbacker tone out of it (at least, that is what it sounds to me) and he actually plays a Rick on the studio version, AFAIK.
This one is amazing, totally different and Turkish in style, but with the Jazzy Fusion Funk spin of Marcus. Sounds badass!

Total post-punk classic. The Gun Club were really underappreciated even at the time.
Thatās Patricia Morrison on bass, she is amazing. More famous for:
not real sure this fits this forum, but if you like rock and roll this is 12:23 of pure awesome

This cycled through on my Ipod today on my drive home. TBT to 1973 for bit of Brit Prog Rock
I found this album in a car boot sale for 10p when I was a teenager. It was a massive departure from Iron Maiden but something spoke to me and here i am 30 years later still enjoying it.
All music you like fits this forum
Plus @nblucas itās got Rinus Gerritsen playing a double neck bass. Whatās not to like about that?
I saw Golden Earing open for Kansas I think back in the 70s. First band I saw that had two drum kits. They were pretty good as I remember.
Radar Love was definitely on heavy rotation on the local rock station but I donāt think I ever saw them. I was a little junior metalhead at that time
The Pretty Reckless are releasing a new album. I remember seeing them back in 2017, playing the Pain in the Grass festival outside Tacoma. After a number of meh bands they hit the stage with so much energy and Taylor Momson has a set of pipes.
They on the way up and were set to open for the Soundgarden tour that year when Chris Cornell left us, and Taylor hit a downward spiral as a result. Good to seem them coming back, and Tom Morrello does a crazy good guest solo as only he could
Man now itās stuck in my head, along with a very blurry, very not sober, very loud memory of hearing it in a club in '87 or so and really, really getting in to the chorus.
Oingo Boingo put on a concert for my high school. it was a radio contest and my high school called in the most times or somrthing like that and they did a live full concert for just our high school. That was in 1985
Unfortunately for me, I didnāt start High School til 1986, was only in 8th grade and did not get to go. Had friends that went tho, I was so jealous.
Aww man, that would have been awesome. I saw them in '86 and it was still one of the best shows I have ever seen. They do small venues really well.
There is some controversy over who played bass on that whole album. According to Eldritch she didnāt play anything and was just used for her image, Sisters also didnāt tour at all during Floodland era so who really knows.
Iād be interested to hear her side of that story. Eldritch was not exactly known for getting along with bandmates in that period. In fact that was pretty much right in the middle of his beef with the Mission guys (or at least, This Corrosionās single release was, IIRC).
Eldritch has also separately claimed that the song was written about Morrison, so thereās some internal inconsistency going on there
