about

When you're a music-obsessed saddo like me, sometimes songs take over your life and just listening to them isn't enough. You're driven to pay tribute and purge them from your system...you hope. That's what happened with these four songs, namely...

Bite the Bullet — We were driving down the Sea-to-Sky listening to some Neil Young live archives when this song came on. I hadn't paid it much heed before, but it quickly become a favourite NY deep cut. Earlier this year I discovered I'd forgotten how to strum the guitar properly, so learning this song became a project.

Quark Strangeness and Charm — Ever seen that clip of Hawkwind doing this on "Marc", with Robert Calvert sporting a stuffed hawk on his forearm? That's the best thing that's ever happened, and besides, it's three chords, so I had to take a whack at it.

W — The most bleak and enigmatic Van Der Graaf Generator song, which is really saying something. I recorded this in early 2020; it felt like the perfect pandemic vibe in which to wallow.

Life Is Sweet — Rachel Portman's music for Mike Leigh's film has been floating round my head since 1990. It's my favourite movie theme, and my favourite movie.
