Fun Facts:
At One is song #100 in the list of Songs by George songs.
It is suitably epic.
Some if it was written in a tent during a rainstorm.
This rainstorm lasted three days and was non-stop.
Leaving the island on which George, Marc and Richard had camped was wet and hazardous.
This song is about an experience with LSD.
At One was performed live many times by Rough Terrain.
Andy would do a funny Scottish dance during the change to 6/8 in the long instrumental section.
This moment became an integral part of the Rough Terrain set.
Other time signatures are 5/8 and 13/8, which the Boss DR55 couldn't handle.

Epilogue by George.
From Volume VI Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies
Composed 18th September 1985.

Recorded November 1986.
Mixed April 1987.
Lifted from cassette May 2025.

Fun Facts:
Epilogue is a post-breakup song.
It concerned a long-term relationship that had ended messily a few months earlier.
The protagonist still wanted to cause troubles months, even years, afterwards.
This was written around the time that Wud (the band) had ended and Laughing Sun was beginning.
For such a potentially heavy, hard rock song it features a surprise acoustic guitar.
It was never performed by a band.

Turn with the Tide by George.
From Volume VI Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies
Composed 19th/20th/21st July 1985.

Recorded November 1986.
Mixed April 1987.
Lifted from cassette May 2025.

Copyright © 1987 & 2025 Wud Records.

Fun Facts:
Turn with the Tide is something of an epic song in E minor.
There are different feels to its various sections.
The last verse was written after George witnessed a horrible violent incident near his home.
That verse was probably written after most of the rest of the song was finished.
Turn with the Tide was briefly attempted by The Masters of Drone.
Unfortunately the location of the one-beat at the start remained mysterious to the other musicians.

It's Just a Game by George.
From Volume VI Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies
Composed 18th October 1985, finished 04:04am.

Recorded November 1986.
Mixed April 1987.
Lifted from cassette May 2025.

Copyright © 1987 & 2025 Wud Records.
Copyright ℗ 1985 Explicit Music.

Fun Facts:
It's Just a Game was written during the days of Laughing Sun.
An extremely odd situation was starting to unfold.
This went way beyond the normal entropy which followed the closing of a cycle of good fortune.
It's Just a Game is a song of esoteric chords and key changes.
Some of these chords went on to form the basis of the song Lullaby, which came later.
The Electric Mistress is set to the 'red' setting, as used for the song Planets.

* For DIY musicians:

Looking to grow your fanbase? Here's a proven strategy for success. It's a bit time-consuming at first because you need to work at it often. However, the awesome results will make it worth your while:

http://www.wudrecords.co.uk/miscellaneous/be-discovered-on-social-media

That article was published in March 2017. While some of the links may no longer work, the theory absolutely will. Try it for yourself!

* Unfortunately...

Due to brexshit, broken britain, rip-off britain, corruption, lies and bias in the media, bigotry, racism, intolerance, polarisation, the fact that some of our family members would not be allowed to remain post-brexit, state-sponsored child trafficking (yes, that's right, we said it - it's pretty shocking, start reading from here if you don't believe it: https://forced-adoption.com/), an increasing sense of frustration and exasperation, and general total weariness of being treated with nothing but derision, ignorance and contempt by the entire shebang since the early 80s, we decided enough was enough and moved our entire operation from brexeter in the uk to begin our grand brexodus in 2017. We are now brefugees, living in brexile very near the border of the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany. If you live in (the crumbling remains of) the uk, do yourself a favour and leave. The upgrade in life quality will blow your mind.

* What do we stand for as a label?

We support all independent musicians who are doing something we find interesting. Our team members all have formal music education qualifications.

We are against corporate brainwash muzak, their puppet friends in the mass media, and many other corporate activities. We will fight their desecration of music until either it stops or we die. 

We believe in helping others in the face of corrupt laws and a broken system. We are pro democracy, green energy and free speech.

We're politically liberal. We cannot support the republicans, maga or gun violence in the usa. We don't see there's any real difference, other than in name, between the christian far right in the USA and the taliban in Afghanistan.

In the uk we are broadly pro LibDem/Green/Labour/SNP. We are VERY anti-tory, bnp, ukip, and any of their friends and associates. We have no trust at all in the uk right wing press monopoly and the bbc. Beware the bbc and its claims of neutrality. It is the propaganda mouthpiece of the tory party. It even charges a propaganda tax called the licence fee. But we like Test Match Special and Radio 6, so does that make us hypocrites...? Hmm.

We support independence for Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Cornwall. We support the individual and the underdog. We are anti-putin and his war, and pro-Ukraine.

Please notice the careful use of capitals. Capital letters imply respect!

We're only interested in the colour of your soul. Not your skin, hair or socks.

We like cricket! Most of us support Somerset County Cricket Club.
