Now, if only that were a Rickenbacker in the guitarist's hands ...

That guy definately looks wreckless. Looks like he has a chipped tooth.

No, that's state-of-the-art 1980s British dentistry.

Bob: I used to have that Wreckless Eric cover on both a 10" mini-album (brown vinyl) and a 12" album (blue vinyl). Some of his stuff was almost listenable. Nick Lowe played bass on his song 'Whole Wide World'. Another of his tunes devolves into a frantic version of the Benny Hill theme song...

It looks like Wreckless Eric has great taste in guitars!

Yeah, but his suits and penmanship are both awful.

Elements of that suit design would have come in handy at Isandlwana in 1879

ROTFLOL!
That has got to be one of the worst-dressed Ric players I have ever seen! So much for the idea that people who play Rics have class.... LOL!
Aitch, I don't want to know................

No probs, Melissa... some things just shouldn't be aired publicly!!
Suffice to say, "Sunbury Rock Festval, 1973"!!
