Looking (not me) for one or two more guitars, bass and drums.

I know it's a close call time wise, but there you go - relish the challenge!

Which part are you short of?

I can take any of the three.

And is it in G?

Lead is taken care of.

I could strum along quietly in the background if required.
I ain't no JimN, mind you - nothing fancy...

Done.

The record is certainly in G. First two notes of the melody (top line): G - B.

Sounds like that's the guitars sorted out.
Just need a bassist and a drummist now...

Dave, is this one a goer?
Haven't seen it on the matrix yet.

Not looking good, George...
Distinct lack of bassist and drummist.
I'll give it until Satruday to see if anyone comes forward.
If they don't, I'll pull the song.

Don't panic. If no-one else volunteers, and if George wants to play rhythm 
(as opposed to second guitar), I'll play bass, and a drummer should be easy 
to brief on the spot.

Sounds good to me, Jim - that should work nicely.
And you'll get the bass solo spot-on, including the sailor's hornpipe :)

Drums on this one are fairly muted and laid-back anyway.

Go for it, Dave!
