Thanks for posting that. I watched it with interest, always having had a liking for their products.

They did rather fudge the issue of why the original company went down, though. It said that they needed money, so Jennings sold a controlling interest to another company that went down for unrelated reasons, but didn't really explain why he had to sell in the first place.

The tech who looks after my AC30 reckons it was the rise of Marshall & the heavy rock bands that did for Vox, the wheel always turns and all that.

I think you might have a point, although the amount of momentum they had in the 60's it is a shame they did not capitalise on it a little better.

I'll be buying an ac15 next week, once the ac50 goes!

I loved the grin on that Ian Lees face as Brian May rattled off a few chords.

He obviously couldn't believe he was stood in his presence.


Great documentary

That's exactly what we noticed. Overlord Darth May rattles out a bit of Boho Rhapsody & Iain Lee grins at the camera. He's clearly thinking I'm getting a personal performance of one of the greatest songs from the creator. Today is a good day!
