A lot has been written about the sixties and seventies as a social phenomenon, as a time of upheaval of values. However, at the time we had no idea that we were in some kind of historical transition. We were just being there. For all we knew, the eighties and nineties were going to be equally radical, or maybe there was not going to be any eighties and nineties at all. Vietnam was still raging, the Cold War was at its height, and nuclear destruction was just around the corner. But man, did we have a lot of fun. The only rule was anything goes, everything is equally valid. The songs were recorded by John on a Ferrograph tape recorder with track-to-track facility -- quite low tech even for the time, but the best we could do with almost no budget. The machine allowed us to overdub in mono but only by rerecording the backing track each time. That meant you had to play the part right and mix the backing track in at the right level all in one go -- tricky even on a good day. Luckily we didn't know the rules or we probably never would have started... After a while we figured enough people had told us they liked the tracks, and that we had enough outlets through friends, clubs etc., to put it out on a record, so we saved up our cash, chose our favorite tracks at the time and had them mastered at Eden Studios in South London. We pressed 100 copies, we sold them quite quickly, then moved on..." Listen on TME.FM  Related Torrents
