..and these things along here are "strings" I suppose?...

...young Hepworth gets RT to take him through the manifold delights of the (ahem)Frender Strat.


Ah yes... the RT 'Man from C&A years'...

much missed in these here parts. Replaced at some point in space and time by the beret.

Take your hands out of your pockets, young man.

It's because he's...

...a northerner.
As a race we tend toward the slovenly.

Theres a rumour..

..that Supergrass are going to do a version of "Sloth" at Cropredy with RT guesting.

Clappers shows us his knobs

Here's a similar demo from lead "electronic" guitarist, Eric Clapton. . .

Now that's tone, Eric. Where did it all go so terribly, terribly wrong?

Archie Valparaiso | 26 April 2008 - 12:02pm

Is it just me...

.. who almost never recognises Eric Clapton in phtoographs and on TV? He must have the most nondescript, generic face in rock.

Who's that bloke with the beard?

Thanks Niks - I thought I was the only one who would have a problem picking Eric out of an ID parade.
For many years I didn't know what "the real" Robert De Niro looked like, either. And this having watched most of his films (and Godfather 2 is my second favourite movie of all time).
I do, however, have the knack of recognising natures sidemen and character actors (Ron Pember was always a favourite).
My mate John totally floored me at a Grand Drive gig a couple of years ago when I pointed out Mick Talbot. "Oh yes" said John nonchalantly "He's talking to the drummer from Denim!"

That reminds me

Many years ago a mate was at Euston when his arm was grabbed by an overexcited young man. He pointed back and said "Look that's Denis Law. He's just given me his autograph". Roy looks and replies "Yes and that's Roger Hunt he's talking to".
Exit young man back in Law and Hunt's direction.
