Originally there was the Skinbat Scramble, which Nicki finally joined in 1986 after 2 years of invitations......So it was until Nifty Eagu & the Glo-Pilots, Nicki Sarzi sang on their first album, "Last/First". Then the Skinbat Scramble's unreleased back-catalogue of 'demos' began to be released, and during a year long Glo-Pilots hiatus, Nicki and Nifty linked up with John (JJ) Johnson, erstwhile last drummer of the Skinbat Scramble's first era. They went to Cryptic Studios in Leeuwarden, Holland and recorded what was to become Coochie's Bream first release, finishing it off in the now vanished Red Studios near Rochester with the great Lord Waldorf engineering. The Glo-Pilots then returned and "Glo-Balisation" was recorded at The Granary in Lamberhurst, Nicki's voice becoming a central feature of the band. Then the Skinbat Scramble was briefly re-constituted for a second era with the Glo-Pilots' rhythm section in order to get a number of unfinished songs recorded properly for Vol. 5 (The Lost Book of the Psychedelic Pirates).
The Ghost Lilacs, is a collection of songs put together,with a more acoustic and sensitive feel, it has most lyrics written by Nicki Sarzi.
Three of the tracks feature the amazing Carl Gent on sitar, (of ex-Mumm-ra fame and presently leading The Old Dolphin Brigade !).
Acoustic slots were performed at the Nifty Nights and Ludmar Explorations all at The Forum, in Tunbridge Wells.
.... And so The Ghost Lilacs were born...

........Notre nouveau clip, entièrement fait à la main... PIG MONSTER.
Déjanté, hors normes, expérimental, décalé, théâtral, déglingué.
........Our new music video, entirely handstitched .... PIG MONSTER.
Crazy, non-standard, out of norme, unusual, experimental, out of phase, theatrical, delirious.
