Bandits completes the upload of the Alias and the Underworld album.
Here’s the last upload for One Weekend. The Sleazy Joint.
I totally forgot about Banshee Warrior until I heard it on my ipod. I was very keen on it 24 years ago, but it didn’t make the 1990 compilation tape.
When in Naples is probably the last of my “presentable” recordings. The rest are jam sessions or ideas that didn’t quite work. I will upload these others to the Bruichladdy Rocks tumblr and eventually I will connect everything up with an html index.
Small Man - Big Limo. It’s a juxtaposition!
Simple Soul. In my shame I nearly forgot about this one. It’s an unintentional copy of Love Really Hurts Without You (Billy Ocean).
Several of the pieces are similar to something else. Inter-City had a bit that would be Wall Street Shuffle in another context, for example. This is The Detective, but what does it remind you of?
As we seem to have a humming theme, this is The Hum of Summer
Nocturne is the companion to Afraid
Afraid is one of a pair of “gymnopedies” from my 1988 Noise Control album.
Les Gendarmes was inspired by the Pink Panther.
Siesta Blues is one that I still sometimes hum to myself.
Inter-City Express is hardcore
Minotaur is from my very difficult and experimental second album, Tribe. Some of the pieces on the album needed further development, or at least a greater awareness of the “stop” button. This one is at least complete and petite, if a tad beastly.
Quarry is actually an early version of Song of Solitude
