Doesn't come up as anything related to model railways. Maybe post it on the Hornby Community forum? #12
General Discussion / Re: what are you listening to ...Last post by ntpntpntp - Today at 04:22:43 PM@Moonglum it's clearly a leccie kit in the Midge video. Shallow drum shells and rubber cymbals
That hi-hat sound (which may be intentionally electronic sounding for this song anyway) #13
General Discussion / Tri-ang R52 Jinty - mystery ji...Last post by Southerngooner - Today at 04:03:45 PMHi
I've been asked to check whether a 1960's Tri-ang Jinty is a runner, and after a bit of cleaning got it going. The box contained an oil pot (empty) and a strange piece of metal that I presume is some sort of jig given the number of letters on it. A photo is below - anyone any ideas what it is? The overall size is 32mm x 26mm ![]() Dave #14
General Discussion / Re: what are you listening to ...Last post by Moonglum - Today at 04:00:02 PMSorry @Foxhound and @ntpntpntp , am I missing something here? The live drum sound (IMO) is poor but the kit being played appears to be acoustic. The hi-hat is very bright in the mix but in any event it looks like the performance has been captured on a smartphone - hence the poor sound. Midge Ure is looking a bit older than when I last saw him!
Here are some well recorded drums... Don't want to start an argument but I probably have... Tim PS the bass guitar is lost in the mire. #15

Yes, I thought it was a leccie kit too. His bass player was very good, needed to be up a bit more in the mix, I thought. #17

The thing that sticks out for me in @Foxhound 's video post is the drum/cymbal sounds are obviously from an electric kit, just doesn't sound quite as good (speaking as a drummer who has a leccie kit at home but real accoustic kits for gigs) #18

General Discussion / Re: what are you listening to ...Last post by Foxhound - Today at 01:34:29 PMMy good lady and I fulfilled another of her musical ambitions and saw Midge Ure at our local venue.
The guy is a machine, word and note perfect. Totally blown away by the whole gig. Footage from the gig (not mine) is here #20

That's some rabbit hole you've sent me down, Nick. Both great but I think Mint Julep edging it for me. I could listen to both bands all day. | Please Support Us!
