Sounds LikeSeventy five hummingbirds dabbing their pretty eyes as they flit across the corpse-strewn Cuyahoga, third week of August, torn between searing memories of the one that got away and an organic yet idealised yearning for the new. In the key of A.

   About Scalaland and Catwalk
SCALALAND still exist in someone's imagination, and that imagination is vivid and good. Somewhere there's a place for us, close your eyes etc. Richard emigrated to Australia and had babies. I didn't. Anyway there was one mid-90s album on U2's Mother Records, BREATHING DOWN THE NECK OF MEANING. It was utterly fucking marvellous, was ignored or patronised, and as I'd spent two years giving it my every last drop, agonising over every note and syllable, believing beyond belief, it pretty much killed me as any kind of creative force. I am but a bitter burned-out husk of a man now in truth, waiting, like all of us in time, for the guillotine to fall. Some of the unreleased stuff was special too and may be rotated here (big thanks to sir anthony reynolds). The snake in the "Snow White Lies" video is (for) real, as is the child. Prior to this there was CATWALK, raised by panthers and dropped from a great height by jaguars, which was primarily about channelling the spirit of Bolan & Ziggy, about six months before Suede came along and gazumped my hand-picked producer. Like Gene Pitney trying to escape the domineering shadow of 24 Hours From Tulsa we have to put Snow Leopards etc here, or else people ask where it is, because Kim's on it and it has a facile chorus that folks seem to like.

hi good people of Scalaland, have a listen to "The Music Sets In"
by Richard Bell and Kathleen Grace, from June 2009.
It samples and repeats an eight
bar pattern from the Martyn Phillips remix of Snow White Lies,
over which we layer spoken word and moody guitars.

Brill video, C, I'm v impressed. Great choons too - is there nothin ye cannee do? (as they used to say in 'Supergran'.)

By the way, seeing as you so sweetly and possibly unwisely encouraged me with your kind words earlier, I am now tip-toeing towards a state slightly closer to confident and, as a result, was wondering what you thought of me other new track I just put up, another cover, this time of Sun Ra's lovely 'I'll Wait For You'. Not sure if it's lovely now I'm finished with it of course.

Hope you likeeeeee! xxx
