Primal rock n roll stalking the M4 corridor, skipping through the service stations at 3 in the morning, spilling coffee, seeing double, buying diesel.
Lorries crawl up the slopes and turn off into out of town commercial centres.
Elemental rock n roll emanating and radiating out of the Thames Valley.
From the black gold refineries on the delta in the east, through the plague pits and flesh pots of the metropolis, we continue west. Over the floodplains till we reach the chalk stained ghostly uplands where we encounter the source.
Three chords and metal across strings still ringing in your ears.
That’s not tinnitus that’s the holy spirit.
Four lived in bodies with nothing to lose and old enough to know better pick
up their instruments and attempt to plug in.
Paul O.D. piledrives it from the bottom on the devil-devil bass.
Andy P. provides lacerations and exclamations on the lead guitar.
Paul G. orchestrates it on the drums.
Steve could be out of control and out of his depth on slide.
Blimey! I've finally finished the slightly epic work of self-indulgence that is "Darwin's Mirror", an exploration of the evolutionary significance of reflection and communication. Its now available on my blog in 5 parts so if you fancy a chuckle read this (and the other 4 parts):
... and I really would like to know what you think so please do leave comments. Many thanks for your time and I hope you find it suitably thought-provoking :)
Here they are at last, three new tunes, as promised. Find out the important stuff: how to answer letters from impecunious wives of former heads of state, what's happened to the old place since you last looked and a question of personal philosophy...whoever said Sundays were boring...
Am I the only one who ever comments? Damn those Limpets! Am playing Ryans bar, church st StokeNewington on Monday 4th aug in celebration of my 27th birthday (wochit!) It's free, except for limpets who have to pay in rubles..
Hi Folks Can I use this opportunity to mention the Zounds (not entirely unrelated to the Evil Presleys) gig at Shepherds Bush Empire on 25 November (Zounds on stage around 8 pm)? I think so, I just did!
