I met Su & Adam ages ago when
DTTS played TitP, but only for a second.
Then after seeing us again at the Fence Homegame 5, Su got in touch to ask about the possibility of doing some recording.
I checked out
her myspace and really like what I heard so I invited her through to put a couple of tracks down.
When she got here, we had a cup of tea and chatted about this and that and how we were going to record, you know. Then there was a loud thump above us in the attic and we both promptly shat ourselves.
Turns out it was a bit of old cornicing falling from the original ceiling onto the actual ceiling but it was a wee bit hairy until we found that out.
Su, holding the ladder for me to climb into the attic, then running through to where we'd been sitting and poking the roof with a broom while I lie on my front across the dirty beams in darkness, talking to her through the plasterboard.
A fairly surreal start to things, but we did eventually get round to recording and the resulting version of 'Eric Is Dead' can be heard over on
her page for a short time before being available on a LTD ED single at Homegame 6 (April 17-19, 2009)
I believe she is playing on the Saturday and, as long as the Inspector Tapehead set runs to time, I'll hopefully be able to join her on the banjo for 'the' track.
I'd like to thank Su for the chance to work on her music.
And for holding the ladder
