Oh my god… I saw Big Bad randomly in a pub back what I was 14 or 15? I was in England visiting family from the states.  I bought the EP and listened to it so much… lost the cassette years ago but this song randomly pops into my head even today. Was randomly googling to see if it existed anywhere and I can’t tell you how happy was to find this!

Big Bad: Love Motion. Opening song of a three track recording, from The Billiard Room Studios, Leeds in 1991. Big Bad was formed by Jono Hudson (Lead Vox), Joolz Hudson (Lead Guitar), Tony Harrison (bass) and Paul O'Dowd (drums) from the wreckage of Yorkshire glam rockers Creamsoda; then shortly after joined by Yorkshire legend Craig McEvoy who replaced Tony Harrison on bass. The band also later featured Leeds guitarist Lee Taylor on rhythm guitar, though not on this particular song. Taylor only appeared twice on stage with the band, before leaving. Jono then took over on rhythm guitar for the rest of the band's appearances.

Big Bad: (Hey) She Don't Dance. Track 3 of a three track recording from The Billiard Room Studios, Leeds in 1991. For brief info about Big Bad, look under "Love Motion". This track was penned by Joolz Hudson and Jono Hudson, but was inspired by  a previous Creamsoda #1 song called "Wild In The City". The song features trade mark layered harmonies from the band, and a burning slide guitar solo from Joolz Hudson.
