Nice record junkmale. I enjoyed it. Maybe somehow in some strange way your group wrote this in warning of the dangerous girl who was to come, Alizée. Dangerous to the heart that is and so terribly addictive.

Yeah nice song there, Junkmale. Great drumming toward the end! I'll be sure to play it from time to time to earn ya some cents.
 I know how it is, I also receive the odd royalty check for some tv scores a cousin left me in his will. For which I had to join ASCAP. So I've seen a bit of how it all works, though am by no means an expert.

Thanks guys
 It was a long long time ago but i think it still holds up pretty well? Everyone still likes the 'fast' bit at the end. I haven't seen nor spoken to anyone that was in the band for over 20 years. We all hated each other in the end, allthough time is a great healer and i sometimes wonder what they are all up to. I was never the best drummer in the world but i still play almost every day but am just an ageing old punk now. It is strange how the royalty thing works. I had nothing whatsoever to do with writing that song (i wrote a few others but they were never recorded thankfully!). That particular single is a real collectors item now and sells for huge ammounts of money when it appears on eBay from time to time. Someone even sent me one a few years ago to sign for them (ah....fame). There was a book written some years ago (called Shame Academy) which is now long out of print, about the whole Northern Ireland Punk scene in the late 70's and it got a mention in it. I have an unusual surname and i presume that's how people have traced me. This was way back then when i had a life

Nice job, Junkmale ! I'm glad to hear you still play. I think there are definitely some therapeutic aspects to doing music.

Thanks for sharing, Junkmale! Great story! Nice song! Yeah the drim bits at the end are a winner! I also like the structure of the song.. where its slow & quiet in the middle and picks up at the end. Plus its refreshing to hear classical instruments for a change instead of the usual electronic crap you hear today.. and auto-tune!
Do any other old farts like me miss the snap-crackle-pop of old LP's? its lke the crackling of a fireplace... so "warm",,,,

Actually the quality with analog recording is potentially better than digital, just like photographs with analog film are potentially higher quality than digital. But that requires top-of-the-line equipment and pristine-condition records, and then you don't get the snap-crackle-pop.
