On John's song "Meat City" What is the message on the the 45rpm version of the song and what is the message on the album version?
First to answer wins NOTHING!

Not real sure that repeating a word would be considered a rhyme.

Been racking my brain and the only 2 I can come up with that have actual lyrics are "WILD HONEY PIE" & "TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS"

How about "Wild Honey Pie" ?

I was thinking "Every Little Thing" just of the top of my head, without sitting down with a list.

Quick trivia question. The winner wins!
What was the first song the boys recorded that has no rhymes in the lyrics at all?

I saw them on this 1976 tour at Madison Square Garden and I still think it was the best sounding concert I've ever been to! Just seems that a lot of tweaking and overdubbing was done later. I'm not sure "Lovely Linda" would have nailed every vocal & musical note on every song, same for the others as ...

Was wondering if anyone knew how much re-recording went into Wings over America? The background vocals especially, sound to perfect to have been the actual vocals from these shows. Paul's vocals are amazing on much of the album. Don't think he ever got enough credit for his amazing voice. I think he ...

Paul. If I decide to cut the springs is there a trick to it? I don't want to cause any damage.
Thanks, Mike....

Paul, It's a 360/12 made in 1967 that I had converted to a 6 string back in 1977 when I bought it. In all these years it has been almost perfect, I could tune it and come back to it a month or two later and it would still be in perfect tune. The intonation was always spot on after the occassional ...

I was trying to lower my bridge just a little and found that it wouldn't go down. The 2 screws that hold the plate to the body have rounded heads that sit a 10th of an inch or so above the plate preventing the bridge from going down any further. I'm wondering if these screws are not the correct type ...

Thanks everyone. I found the problem. The coil wire has a break right at the lug connection. I'll wind it back 1 turn and re-connect. Thanks again!!!
Mike.....

Thanks Nicolas, but I always use the mono jack. Even tried plugging into Ric O jack but still nothing. Guitar has never been near anything that might de-magnetize it, but thanks again for you ideas!!
Paul I checked the continuity on the pickup toggle switch and it's good in all 3 positions. I'll ...

I have a 360/12 made in 1967 that is ALL original except for some new capacitors I put in a few years ago. The other day the the toaster pickup at the neck just stopped working/completely dead.
I checked the connections under it and cleaned them up and re-soldered, still nothing. Also looked under ...

It's a real shame that Ringo doesn't seem to have any of the 7 that were made!
