sorry i ve not been able to post any music on here for a while i ve been involved in a very long process of moving house my back has only just recovered from moving my records from my old place to the new no internet or access to vinyl ripping equipment has made it impossible and also having a few spare hours a week to blog now seems like a luxury while i m renovating a place that hasn t had a fresh lick of paint for what looks like about 30 odd years i ve still been buying loads of records including plenty of fab beatlesque and harmony pop killers that are perfect for this blog hopefully i ll be posting again before the end of the year posted by peter gough at 11 39 8 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday 22 march 2015 dr cosmo s tape lab beyond the silver sea 2015 sugarbush records i m bringing things right up to date here because i m certain that the readers of this blog will love this band as much as i do you most likely missed last years debut album by dr cosmo s tape lab the killer ever evolving lounge came out last summer as a limited run of 500 copies which sold out in an instant luckily for us dr cosmo s tape lab s joe kane and stu kidd haven t wasted any time over the last nine months instead they ve been honing the craft of writing the perfect pop song taking in the best influences of the last 50 years of pop music and producing what i m declaring as the album of the year that s two years running now like all genius songwriters kane and kidd are pushing the envelope of pop and with beyond the silver sea they ve courageously explored territories where many if not most have failed miserably yep i m talking about the concept album complete with spoken word interludes their bravery has paid off and all of a sudden concept albums seem like the coolest thing in the world beyond the silver sea is twelve songs of sci fi psychedelic baroque power pop with the emphasis on pop and a further twelve tracks of hitchhikers guide to the galaxy esque dialogue courtesy of adam smith the album tells the story of sense factory worker max troubled by a recurring dream that inspires him to think and look different to everyone else the songs on the album neatly reinforce the story and will satisfy fans of nilsson the beatles the small faces todd rundgren electric light orchestra super furry animals the beta band and even jeff wayne s war of the worlds beyond the silver sea is released on the always outstanding sugarbush records on limited silver vinyl on 30th march 2015 here s an interview i did recently with joe kane from dr cosmo s tape lab you guys are roughly the same age as me am i right in thinking that your parents record collections were a big influence on you when growing up i can t speak for stu but i got myself into all the music that i listen to and it all stemmed from seeing the opening credits of the movie help when i was ill on the couch aged 12 my mum and dad weren t massive music fans but they always made sure i had a stereo and whatever tapes i wanted as a kid my dad liked music but nothing that particularly took my fancy at that age though he had some cool looking records in a bag in a cupboard he did however buy me led zeppelin iv on cassette because i really really liked the rolf harris version and he also took me out and bought me my first electric guitar which was a red hohner strat copy i was already a big fan of stuart s work with the wellgreen and bmx bandits and have only recently discovered the owsley sunshine who are also great any more music projects that we need to know about i ve been involved in various friends bands fleetingly and in a non writing capacity such as the fast camels and the martial arts check em out but only because i really liked their music and the opportunity came along to join and not have the pressure of co writing and recording all the stuff that side of things really took its toll while i was working on the original owsley sunshine albums all my own fault of course nic denholm my os writing and production partner now lives in la although we have accumulated an impressive collection of transatlantic collaborations we hope to release in the not too distant future off the back of the three owsley albums i jumped in to making two home recorded solo efforts only joe kane some soon time after just to see if i could do it all myself they re alright but i find it hard to listen to stuff if i know it s me doing everything on it i also really enjoy recording and producing for other people and i ve worked with quite a few really good acts from around glasgow such as the hidden masters the trembling bells and most recently the wonderful duglas t stewart from bmx bandits bringing norman blake round to my house for a session one afternoon stu and myself have been working on a bunch of new stuff with duglas which we hope will end up as part of a very fine pop album at some point in the next year your first album ever evolving lounge which i love by the way came out less than a year ago and here you are with a brand new album and one without the slightest dip in quality have you guys always been this prolific we started recording beyond the silver sea directly after we d done our first song pin the tail so it was pretty much straight in and baws oot from the start that was in the period of july 2013 up until maybe december so we got a lot done we worked mainly on a monday afternoon every week and initially we were writing and recording two songs a day with maybe an extra day here and there for sweetening sessions we had a few periods of maybe 2 or 3 weeks at a time where we weren t working on stuff because either stu or myself would be away on tour but we d be in contact discussing where to go with it and coming up with either more plot elements or discussing songs we thought it would be fun to rip off we brought adam in towards the end to flesh out the story we d created and help join the dots a bit in his inimitable style he s got a fantastic grasp of obscure sci fi elements as well as a talent for narrative stemming from his comic book work we decided to hold back btss and record ever evolving lounge in early 2014 as we thought it would be cool to release a more immediate pop album for our first lp release we wrote and recorded that album in just over two months in my new flat where i am now so we didn t really stop for breath where did you record beyond the silver sea beyond the silver sea was recorded entirely in my old bedroom in a flat i shared with two other musical friends we used a tascam 424 mkiii cassette four track and not a lot of mic s really we were using at first a nady ribbon mic over the drums which were this weird kids drum set with a military marching drum from 1967 as a floor tom we used one of those fat shure bass mic s for the bass drum and a shure unidyne iii 545 for all the vocals i bought a couple of cheap old compressor rack units and started putting stuff through them too as we progressed so the sound really changes throughout the album the sound changes a lot on the record because we were just trying everything and anything out to facilitate whatever style we were writing in and i think that makes for an interesting and fun listen we would try and record two live instruments together on a track so there s a lot of tracks with drums and piano or bass and shaker on them which made things interesting for me at the mix down stage is the story of max autobiographical and what drugs do i need to be on to understand what s going on making the album was really therapeutic for me as i d been a bit burnt out for a while and not really doing a lot of my own music before i started working with stu it had been nearly five years since i d worked on anything substantial and i was only tinkering with recording at home in that period so i had to kinda relearn things a bit and experiment again to find my feet i was on some mad stuff to sort my head out a bit when we were making it and i think subconsciously a lot of the things that had been on my mind for a while fed in to my lyric suggestions but it never felt like it was an outpouring of any sort it really is a 50 50 collaborative process so you can t afford to get too self indulgent or confessional without sounding like a twat i m not on any drugs and the story makes perfect sense to me it s a very tight little metaphysical pop odyssey with a sprinkling of silliness for good measure anyone who wants my convoluted run down of what exactly is going on then feel free to drop me an email i read somewhere that you had to trim down the album to make it fit on to vinyl how much was left over from the sessions and are they lined up for future releases we cut two tracks to meet the running time of two sides of vinyl girl in winter and the clone and i which are now both available as the b sides of singles maybe someone will join the dots and make a version of the album with those two tracks reinstated we have additional narration from adam recorded too that filled out the story between those two songs what bands new and old are you enjoying at the moment we ve been listening to a lot of brian eno as well as other electronic and weird noisy stuff in the last year and that s been feeding in to our latest recordings i think i ve also been obsessed with the two incredible country funk compilations released in the last few years so i m always trying to cop one of those grooves we re just putting the finishing touches to our third album which is called cosmic tone and we hope to find someone to release that within the year it s a step forward for us and covers a lot of new territory not least a 22 minute long song suite about a boy who buys a pair of haunted pyjamas from a charity shop i m glad beyond the silver sea is being released on vinyl what s your opinions on the vinyl comeback getting beyond the silver sea out on vinyl is truly a dream come true for us and to be doing it with someone like markus at sugarbush records is a perfect situation for us to find someone with such a bang on no nonsense approach to releasing records these days as well as a sympathetic ear for classic pop songs is rare when we were making the album we knew in a silly way that vinyl was the only medium for it but we never dreamed we d find someone crazy enough to release it posted by peter gough at 19 16 no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest saturday 7 march 2015 the raspberries on flipside tv show 1973

pinterest chesapeake juke box band s t 1972 chesapeake juke box band were duo rusty mcfinn and steve sawyer who appeared out of nowhere released a single album of progressive pop and quickly disappeared the self titled album was released on the independent hollywood label greene bottle records and was recorded in 1971 at new york s record plant at the same time and place that john lennon was recording his classic imagine album rumour has it that john lennon borrowed chesapeake s executive producer john frangipane s mellotron for his own recording session mcfinn sawyer the album released in 1972 is loaded with beatles references throughout from opening track until we meet again with it s repeated lyric i love lucy in the sky with diamonds i love lucy in the sky with diamonds up to the album closer the door s unlatched martha my dear the door s unlatched for you as i previously mentioned this is pop but of the progressive kind with beatles sounds and psychedelic effects way out of date by 1972 but with songs in the van dyke parks song cycle or beach boys smile vein sure it s choppy and un jointed but it works another obvious comparison would have to be klaatu whose ultra beatlesque debut 3 45 est would take this style of music to the nth degree even fooling some into believing that they were the beatles mcfinn and sawyer were clearly a talented pair which makes it all the more baffling that they don t appear on any other records before or after unless that is that they are pseudonyms if anyone knows do let me know album highlights include jennifer which sounds like on my side era cowsills fizbee s tavern is pure 1968 bee gees with john lennon on vocals and this time with it s driving macca bassline and penny lane trumpets is a euphonic joy despite it s scarcity chesapeake juke box band is still reasonably cheap to get hold of and it comes in a nice die cut sleeve of a jukebox natch get a copy quick before they all dry up posted by peter gough at
