Life is not a rehearsal, its a live take.
I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
...
Music, Music, Music. Cats, Mojo (14) and Zebedee (11). Basses... my lovely 1975 Fender Jazz bass is called the wife. 2 Double Basses: My German lady born in 1850, showing her age but still glorious, my new Double Bass born in 2004, foxy lady and getting better with each passing year. 70's Japanese Motorcycles, I have whittled my collection down to a Honda CB550K. Hillwalking and climbing (although these activities tend to conflict with my Guinness drinking schedule.) Long suffering Evertonian... the vertical frown line on my forehead is known as Everton Brow....
The Creator....are you out there? ...
I like groove music that comes from the heart. Top of the list...John Martyn, you really should check him out. I owe a debt of gratitude to to 2 men: James Jamerson for turning me onto Electric Bass and Danny Thompson for hipping me to Double Bass (and also for being a total gent on the occasions I've met him.) Theres too much good music to list and the sad thing is, theres too much I'll never get to hear in my lifetime....
.....I like slushy 1930's/40's romances. I'd fallen in and out of love with Bet Davis and Barbara stanwyck before I was ten. I like a good movie but prefer a good book....
Digital TV is f*****g my life up: Too much history channel!
Ray Browns Double Bass studies, Vol 1.I'll let you know how I've gotten on in ten years.
My mum, if she can keep going then I can too. Danny Thompson: Time, tone, passion and perseverance. The main man.
