craigos1 Posted March 29, 2023 Author Share Posted March 29, 2023 When Joan Armatrading was a hit in the 80's her guitar playing wasn't given the credit it was due. This Joan just with her guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWJ Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Ahhh Vulcan Lane, Auckland in the 80s. Was a kinda magical place. Had a very interesting experience in the pub featured in the video but that's a story for another day. The vastly underrated Sonny Day, a superb musician. You may recognize a couple of girls among the back-up singers 😽 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez PJ , can't believe you were at Aranui Pub, I worked @ the Woolston Tavern in early 90's and was told it was the 3rd roughest after Hampshire St & Aranui! Funnily enough had nights out at both and had a great time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globederby19 Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Taj Farrant again. This 9 yr old is a rare talent, with mind-boggling control of a guitar , left and right hand in sync, plenty of vibrato,which is a sign of good technique and rock face to go with it. Brilliant stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
