Not on complete recorded output, but as a guitarist.

Did he ever say how proud he was of little Tone? What a belter he was or anything like that? Maybe your grand-father would like the last word?

I have a story in reserve.
Our Little Tony used to fall asleep al the time, and have bizarre dreams. He was also terrified of the PG Tips chimps.
One night he tried to climb out of the window in his sleep screaming "The monkey's have got me grandad!!"
As in 'my grandad'.

Because hearing the first eight of "What Difference Does It Make" on a Peel session made a dull adolescent in a Northern one horse town understand that there was more to music than Bananarama.

I think it is impossible to be passionate about the Smiths.
Even though, they should be right up your street you misery.
Okay. Question. Create two bands, one living, one dead out of any people who are, err, either living or dead.
Obviously, it would be useful if I knew who your band members were, but rather than me ask you to create a band of people I'd know, if you can post a YouTube link to their finest work as individuals, that'll be great.
One singer.
One bassist
2 guitarists (one one if that is easier)
Drummer.

Dead band:

bass: John Entwistle
lead guitar: Hendrix
rhythm: Fred 'Sonic' Smith
drums: Clyde Stubblefield
Living band:
vocals: Jim Jones
bass: Lemmy
lead: Angus Young
drums: fuck knows
These are not necessarily my all time favourites but the combination of the musicians might be good.

Dead band - Vocalist Janis Joplin, drummer Jon Bonham, with Monty on the others.
Live band - Ooh - I think Imelda Mae vocals, Chuck Prophet lead, JJB bass (although he'd sulk) and the geezer who is currently playing with Focus on percussion.
