Good advice. I'm of the opinion that songs, in a kind of hazy form, are floating around in the aether, and songwriters have (for want of a better word) antenna which can pick up these songs and make sense of them.

I watched a music-related awards ceremony on TV several years ago. Can't remember which one it was. But I found the whole thing so cringeworthy that I've never watched one since. Having said that, best of luck to your friend, Nathanael

I completely agree with you YouTube ads are incredibly annoying!

Thanks for the info, chaps

Okay. Thanks

Don't hate me. I'm a live sound noob. I've been asked to join a non-gigging, rehearsal room-only band. Which is fine by me as I don't particularly want to play in front of an audience, but I would like to play with other people. I'm extremely short of funds at the moment and I was wondering if I could plug my active bass directly into the rehearsal room's PA. I don't have an amp or a DI box, and I can't justify the outlay for either of those items at present. I have a ten-year-old Sandberg Basic four-string. Thanks.

After much thought and self-flagellation, I'd like to change my answer from '66 - '75 to '65 - '74. I simply couldn't leave out Help! and Rubber Soul. And apart from A Night at the Opera, '75 wasn't that great.

'66 to '75
