Bands history...this starts back in ’79 when I was 17..................... Demented Stoats, Spiral, Next Year’s Big Thing, Hippy Slags, Hawkwind, Daze, Techno Pagan and Everyman....and ends mid 90’s when I left the music scene.......until.......................... Bands present... Spirits Burning, Artists United, Mooch and Citizen Zen...oh and would you believe it..The Hippy Slags too!!!!!! ............................................................ ....... My work with Spirits Burning started in 2002 ish when Don Falcone got in touch inviting me to contribute to Spirits Burning..a space rock collective of talented musicians living across the planet....check out our latest cd ’Alien Injection’, due for release on Black Widow in October...thats SOON!!...to be followed by many more, one of which being our collaborative cd ’Earth Born’ which has some great musicians contributing....including lots of Hawkwind members past and present and members of other great bands such as Gong, Jefferson Starship, Karda Estra and Citizen Fish ...................this fab creation is being mastered by the famed Paul Cobbold as I write. We have a new BW/SB project cooking up a storm!! ’Bloodlines’ features some fab tracks about some great characters from history with some ace musicians contributing... The Hippy Slags had a fab one off come back gig in Bath that featured local bands from the 80’s....Studs On Main St, Wild Planets... It was at the Widcombe Social Centre (a v cool venue!_) on Sat Nov 23rd...AND raised over £800 for charity!! WELL DONE EVERYONE!! Nothing more planned on the live front...but lots of collaborations happening...!!!! Artists United is Alan Davey’s bunch o’ muzo’s...He’s firing on all cylinders right now and Songs and plans are pouring out in all directions! I’m writing an EP with him..working title Djinn... its great to be batting for the same team again!...we’ve got 5 songs on the go...all crackers...one of them I’m singing in Arabic... Another collaboration for 08 will be recording some spoken word for Spaceseed’s next cd...they are a fab space rock band that Harvey hangs out with here and then! Last but by NO means least is the recording of a cover of Ace Of Spades with Spirits Burning for a cd of Motorhead covers.........Mooching with Mooch came about because Stephen Palmer a long time collaborator with Don asked if I was interested in working with him on his new cd...Dr Silbury’s Liquid Brainstem Band. This was released on June 21st 2007.....I play on 3 great tracks... vox, sax and clarinet...there are some great reviews around of the cd including last months MSJ and tracks are available to download from Aural Innovations...plus you can check out other tunes on Mooch’s myspace pageWriting and singing for Citizen Zen’s 2nd cd ’Return to Shelter’ in aid of Shelter...available now...came about thru Keith Hill contacting me via my MySpace page....and a jolly good cd it is too!
