Unreleased Recordings

I'm very pleased to be able to provide these 3 tracks which were recorded by some of the band around the time they finally called it a day. These were rough 4-track recordings of new songs the band were rehearsing, and had introduced into concerts shortly before they split.
The songs were all written by Mark Spalding, and appear here with his permission - Thanks Mark! And also to Barry from providing them.

Solo Works

This is an extract from Jim's "Jekyll and Hyde", which he is currently working on. The vocals & guitar work are Jim's own guides, and should be replaced in the completed recording. This is based on an old version you may have heard on a live tape (I haven't yet!). It was created on a Mac with Pro-Tools and digi001. The drums are Jim's, but have been heavily influenced by John MacPhee's drumming style.

Four more samples from Jim's current work-in-progress - they are more old tracks being re-worked. Mark Spalding features on guitar on these tracks, too.
