On Friday 13th April 2018, Biggs played an intimate show at the Silver Cloud Hotel (better known as the site of the Barrett-Wroe family murders three days later). "Imaginary Friend" was played in the encore, and is the final track to be released on the Biggs Live EP (Part II).

Imaginary Friend (LIVE)

It’s rumoured that Biggs first played this arrangement when, half-way through a performance, he forgot his lyrics. Abruptly switching to the chorus of Roger and Hammerstein’s “You’ll Never Walk Alone”, the result was so well-received by the intoxicated audience of Liverpool FC fans that it has featured in his set ever since.

Music and Lyrics: Dixxon / Rogers / Hammerstein
Vocals: Biggs Dixxon
Backing Vocals: Hans Lee Hoffman III
Piano: Giant Tim Rafferty
Oboe: Miss Bobbi “The Blower” Fox
Organ: Wiry Joe Jefferson
Drums: Unknown

The Biggs Lockdown LP

Don't Walk The Dogs No More (Y.N.W.A.) [Home Demo]

Written by Biggs during a short break from the Charles Manson Rehabilitation Centre, this short song reached #83 in the Bolivian folk charts before being censored for its many references to drug addiction.

First Trumpet: Miss Bobbi “The Blower” Fox
Second Trumpet: Hans Lee Hoffman III

Can't Settle Down [Home Demo]

Written towards the end of his second marriage, this song contains one of Biggs Dixxon’s most enduring rhyming couplets: “Freshen up, tell your husband you’ll be coming soon / I’ll be waiting naked in the other room”. T-shirts bearing this slogan are currently unavailable.

Asked to record an uplifting anthem for a children’s TV serial, Biggs handed this track to producers alongside a taped audition for a part on the show. The rejected song was relegated to the production company’s archive, where it remained until this album’s release.

Piano: Giant Tim Rafferty
Strings: The Silver Cloud Quartet
Music and Lyrics: Dixxon / Dickinson

Don't Make This Harder (Than It Already Is) [Home Demo]

An uncharacteristically optimistic song from Biggs Dixxon, written in honour of his younger sister’s engagement to a minor UK celebrity. The sister declined to comment on the song, telling the media that she hadn’t spoken to her brother “in years”.

Music and Lyrics: Dixxon / Dickinson

According to his biographer, this track was written and recorded in Detroit’s Deep Purple Studio while his second wife gave birth in a hospital less than 200 yards away.
