oi you
going to have some music to try out on you soon. It's about 35 minutes long, so you'll need to sit down, get stoned and have a good listen to it.

I am very much ready for that
Your own work, is it?

This week I've bought a brilliant rockabilly LP by Sonny Burgess, and am awaiting something you might well be into - the eponymous Captain Beyond LP. I've seen it over and over again in 'best rock LPs of all time' lists - from the Amazon reviews it's heavy, proggy and psychedelic and super-skillful. It's the pre-Gillan Deep Purple singer, two ex-Iron Butterfly chaps and Johnny Winter's old drummer. 1972.

I am quite excited about hearing it. Have a read on Amazon.

mine and my compadre, who is drummer in my other band
I've played guitars and bass and tambourine and provided musical direction. He has played guitars, bass, synths, drums, shaker thing and sang the one bit that has singing.

It's got a bit of prog rock stuff, some nice picked stuff, a bowie pastiche, some flamenco, bit of hard house, bit of nine inch nails type stuff, some heaviness and some iron maiden style harmonies. We're pretty pleased with it.

all thoroughly sprinkled with whoosing noises and explosions.

That album sounds awesome. Let me know what it is like.

any chance
I could get a special Montymix with guaranteed no traces of Bowie?

Seriously though that sounds fucking EPIC and I'm flattered to be asked.

I'd say you've covered a good few bases there

it is however one 35 minute long piece of music
loosely based on and inspired by the battle between red and grey squirrels....

A subject matter
close to the hearts of all Englishmen and women, surely?
