Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Thanks to Glenn Tranter for pointing me in this direction. I've owned my 1964 4001s/RM1999 since 1979. I do occasionally cheat on it with a Spector NS-4 or Musicman Sterling though. The Ricky only gets posh gigs. Here's a picture: https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8803/16469033994_e0b3f51830_c.jpg Hey ...

Here's hoping that Poly will pull through - we already lost Ari Up last year to cancer.

A true legend - Ronnie would have been 65 yesterday. His solo, post-Faces, material is sublime.

It's gone. Wonder who bought the beauty?

If instant karma doesn't get them, the Flo & Eddie b/v's on 'Bring The Light' definitely will.

Rock 'em back, Sonic! Their influence on Rock 'n' Roll music must not be forgotten.

What a great film 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown' was. Now I'm really looking forward to the 'Wrecking Crew' and the Emitt Rhodes 'One Man Beatles' documentaries.

Absolutely fantastic footage, Tim. A great insight into the band and the times. God bless you Reg.

I'd like to hear a few more songs. Seems to have a decent powerpop feel going on there.

'Standing In The Road' - Blackfoot Sue. Owners of vintage Rickenbackers with a nervous disposition should close their eyes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWaJ6vNyvaw

Motor City Is Burning! This was at the end of the MC5's career when they added Derek Hughes on bass from Birmingham, UK. Still great!

A friend of mine posted this on Facebook today as well, Ted! Great crafted pop song - I remember it well!

My favourite, Francesco. This is what makes McCartney one of the great bass players. Excellently played by your good self!

I like it, too. And the promo film is fab.

I still have the LP on 10" brown vinyl! He's just produced an album for a Swiss/French band I'm acquainted with called Gil Rose and the Hydropathes.
