Thursday was another productive day for us, with all the band making an appearance at some stage. Gary started the day working on percussion for Something I Don’t Know and Tired Of Trying. I even made a trip to a building site to get my hands on a foot of water drainage pipe which was added to the percussion section………..
We then got Paddy to lay down Bass on Tired Of Trying before getting Peter to lay a bit of edgy electric guitar which gave the track a feel of ‘pulp fiction’ or even ‘queens of the stone age’ buzz about it, which can only be a good thing on all accounts.
After that Peter, Ben and I went into the soundbooth together to record a 3 part unaccompanied vocal intro of Waters Edge before I got paddy and my manager to join us for some hand claps and foot taps…. Poor Andrew was a little out of his dept here but managed to keep up, I think there’s video footage to prove in his defense that he wasn’t all that bad………. bless him!!
I’m on WLR FM with Roddie Cleere tonight. Listen in!
