A song about a monster with a Transylvanian flavour, but no need to be frightened boys and girls, he's actually, underneath the leathery skin and the fangs, a sweetheart, all he wants is to be happy with his headless bride.

In 1973 Ronnie Lane left The Faces at the height of their fame in favour of the quiet life amongst the Shropshire Hills...
Except it wasn't that quiet!

This is a special BBC project dedicated to that period in Ronnie Lane's life, originally broadcast on 7th February 2016.

This is a recording taken from the BBC TV's 'NOEL EDMUNDS MULTI COLOURED SWAPSHOP' - broadcast on February 28th 1977. 
I was part of a 'Supergroup' which played live in the studio for that episode. 
The band consisted of: 
Kenny Jones - Drums, 
Suzi Quatro - Bass, 
John Christie - Keyboards, 
John Miles - Guitar, 
Leo Sayer - Vocals and Harmonica. 
Please excuse the quality. It is as it was sent to me... a very old recording direct off the TV. 
These were the days when we musicians could still really have fun on British TV!

Songwriter, singer, multi-instrumentalist, travelling troubadour and one man band, record producer and founder of Nothing Concrete, Fergus is a diverse talent with many strings to his bow. Based in the South of France from where he runs his many projects, Fergus's songs and voice have been compared to The Waterboys, Dylan and Joe Strummer.
 
Years of travelling the world have helped to broaden his musical horizons and he is as comfortable playing balkan or south American rhythms and styles as the celtic and Americana roots music he grew up with. Working in formations from his traditional one man band "Bandolino" act through the ever changing line-up of Nothing Concrete, to producing the "humanitarium" albums that bring musicians from around the world together in Fergus's studio, he is constantly striving to create music that sounds real, communicates to the listener, and avoids cliché and overproduction.
 
With a UK based publishing deal and a distribution and licensing deal in the USA, exciting collaborations on the go, having worked with and supported such acts as Grammy award winner Joan Armatrading, Leo sayer and Rick Wakeman amongst others over the years, a new Humanitarium album, the forthcoming release of the debut Nothing Concrete album and an upcoming 2015 summer tour, Fergus is certainly keeping busy!
 
Fergus's extensive live experience has made him a captivating performer who relishes situations where he can really connect with his audience.Check the website to hear sound files, watch videos, find out about his other projects or to find out where he is playing next.
