I learnt all these Moss solos by ear, the hard way!! I was so desperate to learn this stuff when I was younger, I didnt want to only play the stuff I had tabs for, and so much Aussie stuff has no tabs, no choice but to sit down and figure it out slowly. I remember writing a letter to Ian Moss when I was a teenager just starting out, and I asked him if any tabs were coming out, he hadnt seen tabs before! Much to be learnt by sitting down and really working out these types of solos for yourself!!
Well they only had 5 studio albums( Cold Chisel, Breafast at sweethearts, East, Circus Animal, 20th century), plus 2 newer ones in the 90's, (Teenage Love, Last Wave of Summer) all are pretty darn good. Circus Animals is my favourite. The live Swingshift cd is great too, as is The Barking Spiders live, AWESOME!
I'll get em all then, i used to only listen to their greatest hits til i listened to Teenage Love and noticed that the whole album was good, plus i really wanna get swingshift for their cover of Knockin on heavens door!if only i was born about 30 years earlier to have seen em live
Yep Knockin is a great cover!I wish I had of seen them live back in the early 80's, I was only little too! Best thing is just to get all their cd's, they all have MOSS MAGIC!
Hey Rob. Have you heard the b-side to this song? It's a song called 'The Dummy' and was recorded by Chisel on 1979 - some of Mossy's best work I reckon.
Congratulations, great tone!
I'm just another Music Man fan.
