In Bath Of Bacon

Długo oczekiwane winylowe wznowienie płyty wydanej w 1983 roku.

Zaskakująco dobra płyta, szczególnie gdy brać pod uwagę iż została nagrana za …. 300 funtów!

Here it is at last! The hep young sound of todays beat élite, direct from the soul kitchen and served, still blazing, to your table! The release of this, the Jazz Butchers first long play recording, comes after months of rumour and report of a hot new act with a cool new sound that leaves the others way way behind. Now you too can hear for yourself the new groove that has set the bohemian set alight – in your own home! Words alone cannot do justice to the cordon-bleu treats of the Butcher Beat – so roll back the carpet and swoop and dive with the fab Butcher Man!

A Personal Message From The Jazz Butcher: Well, it's sometime early in the big work ethic on a Friday morning and I'm hours away from the big bastard! Looks like there's precious little time for me to chuck out that work ethic this weekend. I've got to be a damned sight sterner than usual in the old quality control with the discipline that M.P.s pay high prices & favour for in those suburban bedrooms, if I'm to make it past the large sheet of paper with NO MORE MONEY writ large upon it. Bus? Train? – decisions, decisions! Do we re-do the glockenspiels or echo the little so and soes out of all recognition – a sound you never heard before? Which is The Voice to tell you about Partytime ? And will Zombie Love ever sound as good as The Zombies? We're a long way from the truth yet poppets. This is my first record all by myself. It's been a pleasure, which is good because that's what they should be isn't it? It's been a worry to – still is – and loads more besides…. I'll let you know how we get on.

The one nobody ever talks about, even though a surprising number of you seem to have it. Recorded for just £300 (Kevin Shields please take note…), it's really just the sound of a few mates failing to take seriously the fact they they've got an l.p. to make. Gloop Jiving and the unfinished Sex Engine make me squirm a fair bit, but Zombie Love , Girls Who Keep Goldfish , and Partytime have all been good friends.

It seems VERY early eighties now, but you must remember that there was a LOT of crap for us to clear out of the way in those days.
