about
This was the first take of this song first thing that morning. We had spent a whole day on Been Away Blues and didnt want to hear it again! So we thought we'd just play something else for a change. We weren't even supposed to record it! Andy our producer just hit record on everything. Lucky he did. After we played this through once, Alastair dropped his bass and walked out as if to say, "That was perfect. I quit now." We managed to convince him to come back and try it a few more times but after about 5 or so takes we realised he was right all along. It had everything that song needed; a laid back attitude and a rocking band to bash it out!
It's quite a bit faster than how we normally play it live and we tried to record it again slower, but that attitude and 'vibe' was irreplaceable!
