It is very likely Pete Townshend played bass on it. He played bass for Thunderclap Newman another Track Records/ Action Managment project from the same era. He used the pseudonym "Bijou Drains" with Newman. Gunther Toody said:

I can't tell you how much Arthur Brown and that first album mean to me...THE CRAZY WORLD OF ARTHUR BROWN was one of the first 10 albums I ever bought as a kid. There was an article with great color pics of Arthur live in EYE magazine and the cool colorful cover of the LP and that was all my adolescent mind needed to invest my saved lunch money in what has to be the most psychedelic 60's rock record with no guitar on it. Vincent Crane was amazing and the weird strings and horns that pop in occasionally are really cool. Anybody else hear the rumor that Pete Townsend played the bass in a last minute time crunch? And does anybody else think that Deep Purple's Ian Gillian kinda ripped off Arthur's distintive screamin' technique? Which is rarer...the Atlantic issues or the Track issues?

Yes, there was a CD re-issue on Polydor that had the original a-side in mono with slight but noticable differences in some of the tracks and were a little longer, then the entire album in stereo. It sounds really good. ratoonie said:

Dont really Know what is rarer:....my friend had a copy of Fire on a 45.... Atlantic,......I've had 2 copys of the Clown-star album...... both were cut-outs & both were on Track...
has any of his stuff been re-issued on CD??????

ah! lemme start by saying the stones are my favorite band. ever.

now that I got that outta the way..
damn, i can't even pick /:

It would be tough to make out a top 5. but "Paint It, Black" will always be number one because when the girls walk by in their summer clothes I too have to turn my head until the darkness goes.

It's the one with the yellowish cover and mick in a wierd veil thing. ratoonie said:

Is that the same album w/ mick standin on the stairs? i Knowits only R&r but i Like it??

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heart Breaker) off of Goat's Head Soup is one of my many favorites. It seems like I'm relatively alone with this one, but it oozes trash to me.

Top five Stones tracks 1. Child of the Moon - allways loved it since i was little 2. Sing this song altogether ( see what Happens) - love it because there is a lot going on. 3. Everybody Needs somebody to Love - I love the almost reggae bass line at one point 4. Empty Heart - sooooooo catchy 5. 2120 South Michegan Ave - a great instrumental.

Citadel - a great track from "Their Satanic Majestys Request" 1967. ratoonie said:

does anyone remeber ...cidadel..off of "Her magetrys Secret Request"....??????

I bought the Cocksucker Blues lp at a record convention back when I was 15 or 16, when single discs were $5 and doubles were $10. The Stones owed one more single to their record company at the time(maybe Abcko?) and they could get out of their contract, so they gave them something vile and thoroughly unreleaseable..."Cocksucker Blues." Side One "Cocksucker Blues"; "Brown Sugar"(Eric Clapton on guitar and Al Kooper on french horn);"Jumping Jack Flash"; "Love in Vain"; "Sweet Virginia" Side Two "As Tears Go By"(in Italian); "Exile on Main St. Blues"; "You Can't Always Get What You Want"; "Midnight Rambler" ratoonie said:

there was a Bootleg ....out many years ago... called Cocksucker Blues....i've only heard about it .....someone please tell us about it!!!!!

Silvertones, Danelectros, Kawais, Teiscos, Kays, etc.
I love looking at vintage instruments and sharing pictures :)
HERE'S MINE! :D

well,thank you!

Well...I haven´t seen the movie...but here what the critics and fans say http://www.flixster.com/movie/who-do-you-love#lsrc:GSR-HEAD-SearchSubmit

Great thanks for that. I think will go for a 50W solid state combo and if the FOH needs more add in a DI. Cheers. Dan Danger said:

The maximum wattage on a guitar amp is a little more important than that of a bass amp. Guitarists like power tube distortion, and ass such need to run their amp at near maximum volume to get "tone" out of them. Many bassists either want no distortion, or use a pedal to get their sound.
That said, a head an 4X10 may still be a bit too aggressive for the situation, but a 50 watt combo with a single twelve-inch speaker would probably work quite well. And if you can beg/borrow/steal an Ampeg portaflex with a single twelve-inch speaker, you'll be in heaven.

oops - i'm connected to my drummer's profile... doesn't matter! BALDO said:

Hi,

For practising and small gigs, I use a 100 Ampeg reclinable AMP (can't remember which one precisely). It's dead good but only if the venue's big, obviously you need to mic up or DI.

I also used to - before it got stolen backstage during a gig - have a presonus pre-amp (blue one with just two knobs gain and volume) - that works really well to give it a kick - increases definition as well as warming up the grain (dunno how that works in terms of logic, but that's the effect it seemed to have - eh)...

We play 60's garage and that's the amp I take on tour.

Hello

Cool Edit Pro is a great recording program and free, i use 1.2 for mastering and multi-tracking. Its extremely basic and easy to use. Also i recommend Rhythm Rascal which is a pretty basic drum program where you can add your own drum sounds and edit the loose and evenness of the playing. I think i paid $10 and have never been disappointed.

good luck

kel ;D

Hey ev'rybody.

I'm very new here but have loved the podcasts for a while. Hence I want to try my hand at doing one myself. I have a lot of good music from podsafe but I have a lot of classic stuff I want to play too (Monks, Sonics, Screamin' Jay possibly). I have all this stuff on Cd and iTunes so would it be illegal slap those up there?

Many thanks,

Fashdad.

This is a great discussion by the way. I was reading in my local paper (for Vashon, WA) that they cancelled the high school prom due to low ticket sales. Why low ticket sales? Because the school banned grinding, which isn't even dancing as far as I'm concerened. I can't understand how it is that kids can't learn real dancing, even Washington DC go go styles. I'm starting to think that watching Shindig and Hullabaloo should be a school requirement.


As long as it isn't "Hootenany."
