We're on a roll

Second recording session last night went MUCH better than last week. Whether it's because we're back in the groove artistically, or I was better prepared having listened to the backing track on and off all day, or we chose a slightly more upbeat and easier song to sing, or a combination of all three I don't know, but we called it a rap at 9.30 and I was much happier with the end result even though there's still lots of "producing" to do on it.

We were keen to record this song early in the process but when we were firing on all cylinders, because it's very much of its time. Called 'Spin Doctor' and written, presciently, in March/April 2007, it tells the story of corrupt politicians and people's slavish sheep-like reaction to them before they realise the grim truth, so you can see why we wanted to record it soon and get it "out there" while all the political fall-out is still fresh.

Annie's going to work up a clever video montage of politician clips and out-takes as a back-drop. Expect to see it on a YouTube near you soon!
