The Cosmic Glue recordings are moving forward beautifully with the seamless integration of new tracks coupled with some re-worked masters from 1977.
So there I was last evening, back in the studio in Stroud where this year's magic is happening, working on one of the '77 tracks, adding new vocals, new lyrics, with my younger self laying down some killer acoustic guitar, and those groovy harmony vocals over the top of my May 2013 vocalising.
I finally got it right.
The track was called Jungle Love - now it's called Poison Pen. It was always a nice dirty slice of rock (with searing guitar throughout courtesy of Hans van Epen) and now it has turned into a menacing piece of acoustic grunge all about a crime novelist and his twisted mind...
(have a little read of my book Slow Poison to get a feel of what I mean...
I'll also add a little of the rough mix of Poison Pen.
Once the rest of the album has been recorded, there will be some live gigs around the country and beyond. I have the tunes, I have the band...so you might just catch us live somewhere soon...
