I've erased the album by mistake and I'll prepare another one next week

Sorry to hear that, hope to see those pictures again... I loved it by the way!!

The funny thing I saved one in my computer that took my attention, because I couldn't understand it... Its a close up of a bass with double strings, with (robbie?) hands holding it. What's that? It's for playing bass and picking guitar at the same time??? looks very cool anyway

During the sessions with Brinsley Forde, Robbie tried a bass he had received from Hoffner which indeed had double strings. He played it like a regular bass. The sound was slightly different but not markedly and honestly I would not be able to tell you which songs he played with this one.

wow thank you, as a bass player myself I was intrigued!
