episode 2: interviews with hard rock heroes

I track of mine I stumbled on just recently. This version was performed by various member's of my band's at the time: Hostages/The Midnight Disco Patrol. A one-take-wonder in a Southampton studio on a Summer's night in 2011. Rough as a Cat's tongue, but purring ever so slightly nonetheless. No idea exactly who sang the refrain at the end but I remember quite a few people joining in! www.myspace.com/themidnightdiscopatrol
