about

I originally wrote and demoed this one in 2005, as the first in an album of spoof "lost" 60s songs by imaginary bands. (In this case, the "band" was a Gloucestershire folk trio who reinvented themselves as a psychedelic folk-pop outfit, according to the extensive back-story I concocted for them. Anyone else thinking "Folksmen" at this point: I shall confirm or deny nothing.)

The album concept returned to the shelf soon afterwards (though I might resurrect it one day...), but I liked the song enough to incorporate it into my 2008 song-cycle about a sleepy English village. This, too, is currently on the back-burner, so until I return to it, here is the track in its own right - specifically, my 2008 re-recording for the "song-cycle" project.

(By the way: for anyone interested, the bass guitar I played on this recording, was an early-60s Hofner Futurama with flatwound strings - perfect for a "period" pastiche...)
