A lock-down home-produced recording.
Both tracks were recorded as part of a series of themed covers nights; home videos temporarily replacing what were originally ‘live open mic’ nights held at the Rochester Social Club, Medway, Kent.
The Memphis Train, originally recorded by Rufus Thomas, was aired on the 26th September 2020 as part of the ‘Town and Country’ theme.
Girl (You Captivate Me), originally recorded by ? and the Mysterians, was aired on the 14th November 2020 as part of the ‘Boys v Girls’ theme.
Both videos of these recordings can be viewed on Mister Unswitchable’s YouTube channel.
Graham Day rarely records ‘covers’, preferring to write his own songs in the bands he’s been in: The Prisoners (1980-86), The Prime Movers (1989-93), The SolarFlares (1999-2004), Graham Day and the Gaolers (2007- present), The Senior Service (2016-present).
However, with no outlet for live gigs or new band recordings in the COVID-19 climate he has been forced to capitulate, and reluctantly admits “it was fun”.
Limited to 50 hand-numbered, lathe-cut copies (A Russ Wilkins Empire Prime Cut). One copy per customer.
