I've Got a Number by George.
From Volume VIII Side B of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 10th December 1983 and 22nd February 1987.

Recorded March 1987.
Mixed April 1987.
Lifted from cassette July 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
I've Got a Number is another song that George wrote for the concept album.
Most of the music for the concept album was composed in the spring and early summer of 1983.
The lyrics for the concept album songs came later.
Some of the lyrics were written in the summer of '83 and more in the following months and years.
The concept album was loosely based on the computer game Wizardry, by Andrew Greenberg and Robert Woodhead.
The software title was a huge and groundbreaking success on the Apple II in 1982.
The date of this song is an anomaly and suggests either a re-write or an estimation of when the original version was composed.
There is a note on the lyrics sheet that says 'Vostok's Song' - presumably one of the characters in the story.

The Fight

Band of Georges: The Fight

Run by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed July 1987.

Recorded December 1987 to April 1991.
Mixed May 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
Run was composed in July 1987 at 19 Haldon Road, Exeter.
This was during the days of Rough Terrain.
It was also around the same time that Lizzy and Dave moved into the flat on the top floor.
After that, the whole house became like a real life version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Run was the fourth and last song on this cassette when Pete helped George move house from Plymouth back to Exeter.
During the journey, the cassette was played in the van.
Run was the only one of the four songs that Pete liked.
George can no longer recollect who had cheesed him off enough to write this song about them.
The vocal is bizarrely a bit munchkinised.
George must have slowed the tape down to record the vocal part.
Perhaps he couldn't quite hit or hold one of the higher notes.

I Pass You By by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 24th July 1987, 8:00 - 8:50pm.

Recorded May 1991 to August 1991.
Mixed August 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
I Pass You By was composed in July 1987 at 19 Haldon Road, Exeter.
It was inspired by the beautiful train journey from Exeter to Torquay.
This journey was George's occasional commute during that summer.
The sound of the train at the start was recorded one evening using two mics and an open window at 63 King Street, Exeter.
That particular property was very close to the main London to Penzance railway line.
It was probably the sound of a British Snail, er, Rail, Intercity 125.
Programming the Boss DR 220A drum machine probably took a long time.
I Pass You By was never included in the set of any band.

Leaving Home by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 1st June 1987 circa 01:00am.

Recorded December 1987 to April 1991.
Mixed May 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
When the lyrics for Leaving Home begin, they are describing the scene in George's room in real time.
Some of the lyrics are by turn fascinating, wistful, poignant and telling.
There is rather a lot of reverb on here, from the same source as for Secret Subsociety.
The drum machine is again the Boss DR 220A.
The EDP Wasp also makes a few appearances.
Leaving Home was never performed by any band.
The bass was tuned to a drop-D for this song.

Ocean And by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed July 1987.

Recorded December 1987 to April 1991.
Mixed May 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
We cannot find any paperwork or lyrics for Ocean And.
George believes it was composed in late June or early July 1987.
It was composed on the bass with a delay pedal, rather than on guitar like nearly all of George's other songs.
Ocean And was written at 19 Haldon Road, Exeter.
This was during the days of Rough Terrain.
It was also around the same time that Lizzy and Dave moved into the flat on the top floor.
After that, the whole house became like a real life version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Ocean And was briefly considered for addition to the Rough Terrain repertoire, but never was.

Secret Subsociety by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 15th May 1987, 11:00ish to 12:55ish.
Additional composition circa September 1987 and January 1988.

Recorded December 1987 to April 1991.
Mixed May 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
The first ten seconds or so of this are a bit garbled due to cassette deterioration over several decades.
Secret Subsociety may have the longest set of lyrics of all of George's songs.
It expresses a lot of experiences around the themes of claustrophobia, fear and paranoia.
George is no longer sure about how it was produced exactly.
The reverb that rather dominates the mix may have belonged to Watershed, or Zaphod, or Paul, who produced the Rough Terrain demos.
George remembers playing this, and the next three songs on this tape, to Pete inn his van in 1991.
This was the occasion when Pete collected George from Plymouth to move him and his belongings back to Exeter.
Pete didn't like the first three songs, including this one.
The opening lyrics describe George's writer's block, which then became unblocked as the song unfolded.
There was a pre-bounce mix of this which featured the bass and two guitars.
Sadly this mix has not survived the passage of time and is beyond repair.
As such, the way the song ended up being mixed was quite odd due to the number of tracks needed for all of the parts.
This is quite an ambitious recording, especially for just four tracks on a cassette.
It uses the newer Boss DR 220A drum machine, which actually ran out of memory.
The drums at the end had to be overdubbed once the first 256 bars had been recorded.

Leaving Home (Coda) by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music and lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 1st June 1987 circa 01:00am.

Recorded December 1987 to April 1991.
Mixed May 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
Leaving Home (Coda) is actually a bonus track.
This coda was something we discovered at the end of the mix of Leaving Home.
It appears to be just some guitar noodling that happened once the take was finished and the tape was still running.
There's a certain poignancy to it, like a final farewell, so we included it here.
When the lyrics for Leaving Home begin, they are describing the scene in George's room in real time.
Some of the lyrics are by turn fascinating, wistful, poignant and telling.
There is rather a lot of reverb on here, from the same source as for Secret Subsociety.
The drum machine is again the Boss DR 220A.
The EDP Wasp also makes a few appearances.
Leaving Home was never performed by any band.
The bass was tuned to a drop-D for this song.

Frustration Song by George.
From Volume IX Side A of the Band of Georges.

Music by G. Davies/J. Peirce.
Lyrics by G. Davies.
Composed 26th August 1987, 03:00 - 03:56pm.

Recorded May 1991 to August 1991.
Mixed August 1991.
Lifted from cassette August 2025.

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

Fun Facts:
Frustration Song was composed at 19 Haldon Road, Exeter.
George wrote it after a period of frustration.
He had been in a relationship with a girlfriend who liked him to do absolutely nothing for long periods of time.
As a person who was always active, he found this very difficult.
It is written on the lyric sheet "A song for" and then the name of the girlfriend.
This was the most reggae song he had ever written up to this point.
The bassline was the creation of Jerry from Rough Terrain.
One of the voices was recorded with the tape slowed down to give the voice a different sound.
The distorted lead guitar is plugged directly into the portastudio. rather than using a mic and a guitar amplifier, to give it that distinct tone.

Frustration Song

Band of Georges: Frustration Song

Killer by Dark Company.
Album: Signmaker

KILLER
Learning is a clock with only one hand
Dreaming is a beach with speaking sands
Knowledge is a vice that grips a man
And Cain was a killer that didn’t understand

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Wanting is a boat that doesn’t know the sea
Needing is a pain that hurts to be free
Waiting is a lock that doesn’t have no key
And Cain was a killer that could have been me

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

War is a sore that won’t go away
Night is a bruise on the skin of day
Children are the reason that you say you’ll stay
And Cain was a killer who got clean away

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Teachers are people who shoot at sparks
Lessons are knives that shine in the dark
Sins are boats on the lake in the park
And Cain was a killer right there at the start

Wisdom is a yo-yo with a broken string
Time is a bird that cannot sing
And you can’t stop the rain with anything
Except love

Fun Facts:
* This song is in the key of A minor.
* During the recording of the sax part, Row played a fabulous blort which caused much giggling and can be heard as a bonus track and on the ‘out-takes and blorts’ page at Wud Records.
* Unfortunately much of the giggling cannot be heard.
* This was the very first Dark Company song that was completed.
* It received highly positive critical acclaim from the Guild of International Songwriters and Composers.
* Due to unfamiliarity with the gear, the DBX on the TSR-8 was switched off for the recording, causing a most horrendous amount of hiss.
* The red LED meant the DBX was 'off', not 'on'.
* This was later fixed with cunning use of gates and aural exciters.
* Killer was written in August 1991 and is 110 BPM.
* The guitars were recorded straight into the desk rather than using an amplifier.
* Killer was the first single released by Dark Company from the Signmaker album.
* It was backed with Second Sight and the digital remix of Killer.
* If you listen carefully to Second Sight, you can hear a little ploppy guitar line running through the song here and there, similar to the ones in Killer.

62nd Love Affair (a Spinner Quickie Production)

a relaxing improvisation with a keybord, a drumset and some noise.

I recorded this, when I was fourteen years old, using a cheap keyboard, my e-drums, myself and a freeware program to try out some sound experiments.
The whole tune is very simple and perhaps a little bit to repetitive and my ability of playing rythms on drums in an exact was on a very low level back then. However, this was the first track I made, other people except myself were able to enjoy.

* 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.
