Please get in touch if you have any information about these songs or the musicians. Do you recognise them? Where are they now?
These songs were discovered when clearing out some old tapes. It was our first ever 'demo' cassette, recorded sometime in the 1980's in Todmorden, Lancs.
Andy was the composer on vocals, keyboards & guitar, Pat was the drummer,
there were also one or two others... but I don't remember their names!
All worked at ICL, West Gorton, Manchester, UK.
The recording took place over a long weekend in the dining room of our old Victorian house, with an umbilical of assorted mic & foldback cables across
the hallway to the lounge, feeding a home-made 8-track mixer, bouncing tracks between two stereo tape recorders.
I remember a last-minute panic as I'd forgotten about foldback, so had to rush out and buy several (cheap!) headphones and lash up some distribution boxes.
It was a bit cramped with mic stands, guitar amp, speakers, a crappy old electric keyboard, a not-so-crappy Moog Taurus (on loan but wish I'd hung on to it), and that haunting piano...
