A true classic from Gordon. This is for the Splinter’s page.
Recorded after the breakup of Hardwood Falls, this track features some of Bathurst’s finest musicians; Chris McCusker on bass and Dave Fitzgerald on electric, to name a few. I’ll leave it up to Gordon to add the rest of the story. This has to be one of my early post Hardwood Falls favorites.

Chris McCusker had this studio out at Raglan, complete with a reel to reel 8 track and a room full of instruments & electronics. Gary & Slim & I used to do a version of this song at every gig, but I thought it might be nice to turn it on its head and see if it still held together. We brought in Dave Fitzgerald who used to play with Chris, strapped him into his Telecaster and stood back while he had fun. Chris & Dave were part of the line-up of Ben Ross and the Extremes and were fine musicians.
