Deke's Liner Notes (originally written in leaky fountain pen, and crudely
reproduced in minature on the inside of the CD booklet).
Well, we're back together again. Bet you thought you'd seen the last of
us. I thought I'd seen the last of us. Well, we were all wrong. Now maybe
this event will send you into peroxisms of delight which will eulminate
in balloons, sausage rolls, street parties and long periods of exstatic
oblivion, or maybe it will send you into vile black moods, despair, depression
and pathalogical hate which culminate in you hoofing down to the iron mongers
to buy a chainsaw and looking up our addresses in the phone book and then
coming round to our homes and performing some amateur surgery and we'd
end up scattered all over the world under hedgerows in black plastic ba3gs,
or maybe it will fill you with a supernatural indifference. Either way
it doesn't matter because we're back. The die is cast.
I'd better tell you about the Record. The 13th Man Line up is as follows
. . . Micky Jones who's been in every line up . . . . Martin Ace who's
been in and out a few times . . . . . John Weathers who hasn't been in
any of the line ups . . . and me who's left once, been sacked once by the
treacherous slimes who now comprise half the present line up. One thing
I've learnt in this ba3nd is always sit with your back to the wall. Wild
Bill Hickock was right all along.
I'd better tell you about the record before I get sacked again. The
album was recorded live at the Marquee Arms on Friday the 13th of June
1983 by Trillion Video Facilities under the guiding hand of Director Derek
Goldman. The Album was produced by the Man band. it was mixed at the Music
Center Wembley. The engineer was Peter Wandless. The album was cut at Portland
Studios by the King . . . George 'Porky' Peckham. Album design was by Hudson
McCleeve.
We would like to thank the following people for their considerable help.
To all at John Sherry Enterprises with a special Gold Star to Dave Betteridge
and John himself, Robin Greatrex, Uve Tessnow, Paul Darden, Mel Hopton,
Seanhire Steve Delaney and for no apparent reason, John Eichler.
Talk About A Morning
Well that's it. Now you know as much about the record as I do. We hope
to see you soon.
Good luck
Deke
