4 track cassette demo recorded in ( 1987 ) 

ARTHUR ( 1987 )

Instrumental track , recorded on 4 track cassette in 1986 . Sort of Disco - funk based but   a bit weird and edgy , .. a bit 'Gang of 4' and Bauhaus influenced .  The bass on the track is actually a Guitar , as a bass wasn't available that day . 


DANCING FOR SATORI -

A Psychedelic track recorded on 4 track cassette in Islington,  London , in about 1994.This was actually the start of the musical direction that formed my 1st Album release ( CHEMICAL) on Acme records     http://www.psychedelic-music.net/pmdb/db3/db_band.php4?id=348.     I still like this one even now . Very loose and un-together . These tracks will probably would have always stayed on cassette tapes locked away in garages in bin bags , and would probably be lost for ever .. so I put them here for who -ever comes across them.

FIND YOU

Another 4 track cassette recording from 1987 , recorded Near Wakefield west Yorkshire . 

Without love ( 1987 )

This was recorded on a mono cassette recorder and the song made up right on the spot , about 3 quarters of the way through you hear me pause and restart the recorder . But there's a pretty good psychedelic song in there ! THIS IS A PURE DEMO ! .. Loads'a mistakes ! .. **

INTO THE MISTS OF TIME

recorded on 4 track cassette in 1987 . A very Psychedelic piece full of backward guitars and floating weirdness throughout . Stands the test of time as is I think . Could not be recreated . 

RED DRESS

This version of 'we walk in light' appeared on the channel 4 documentary 'The New Mod Generation'  and was recorded under a name I used 'MOONUS' just before the formation of the band 'GROOP' .. this was a transition of stye between the psychedelic project 'CHEMICAL' and Groop. At the time I was also working and recording with the psyche- rock band 'SUNDIAL' .

We walk in light (orchestral version) 1999

This song was written entirely during long late night sessions Busking in the tunnels under westminster station .  Rather than fall into the rut and routine of the usual busker 'cover versions' I preffered to use the time to write new music . This is an example one of one of those tracks . 

Westminster ( instrumental guitar track )

A track I recorded under the project name 'GROOP' in 1999.

GROOP 'SOURKRAUT'

This is the only existing version of 'Conquistador'  . Purely demonstrative and was never intended as a final version. But a damn fine 'Surf' track !
