[Fmpro] Chops & Prague Orchestras

[LesHurdle]

Something I never boasted about.............  aside from LSO [London  
Symphony Orch] Classic Rock Albums, I worked many LSO & RPO etc  
recording gigs as the 'only' electric rhy part of the orch.

Gave me a fit when I first got there..........  even though I was  
trained as a classical trumpet player......... as a rhythm guy...  
when the conductors stick hit 'bottom'..... off I went ;-(

The answer was a felt banjo pick..........  a LONG one...........  I  
held the pick at it's base and since it was floppy it took a while to  
make the bass gtr string speak and so was 'late'....... usually just  
about right..........  for a while they thought I was a genius ;-)

Then they knew I was  ;-)))))))

Yep.......... I was a high note guy, today... maybe scream up to a  
middle C ;-)
