The pressure was on to get ‘Outside looking In’ (guitar, vocal track) recorded in the morning session which we did on a live take, despite my hatred of doing vocals in the morning. We then quickly moved onto bv’s for Ben as he had to catch a bus at 14:45. When we got Ben done, Garry ran him to the bus and we moved onto Peters bv’s after a well earned sambo. It took a while to get Peters bv’s right as the close harmony had to be worked out perfectly before it was put down on track. I suppose it didn’t help the fact that Peter got a fit of the giggles and pissed his ass laughing for a good 15 mins!!

When Peter eventually finished both Garry and peter headed off, while Martin and I started on my vocal for ‘Tired of Trying’. It was probably the most enjoyable track to sing so far, mostly due to the fact that I knew it was Friday night and the end of a hell of a long week for Martin and me.

This week we’re organizing art work and string arrangements and start thinking about artwork.

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!
