Now before anyone has a go, yes, I know
we could easily loose the ôSö from the
album title and just call it the
Crapbook. I also thought it would be a
good idea to just have the sleevenotes
made up of the word ômeö thousands of
times, because this is letÆs face it,
all about me, me and me.
Anyway, that aside, this album has all
come about through impatience. Over the
last seven years I have tinkered and
diddled with music in my bedroom, my
office and my head. The 20 tracks on
this album are the ones that are still
just about alive and represent the
scraps of music I have dubbed off or
that have not been trashed from my
desktop. I donÆt really want to see them
all die so the only way to get them off
my computer and out of my life is to
issue them, and the only way I thought I
could do it was under the umbrella
excuse of a musical scrapbook. It will
become obvious quite fast that many of
the tracks here are indeed scraps,
sketches or unfinished business. But
getting tracks completed is the hardest
bit about making music if you ask me, it
takes ages to finish things sometimes
and ages is really not what I have. So I
thought best get it all out as it is. I
actually think this is alright and
acceptable these days, our attention
spans have diminished, we are more used
to sound bites, shorter cues, weird
little things, and how many people are
going to sit down and listen to this all
the way through anyway. And I could also
bring to this booklet the argument that
although a track might have an abrupt
end and may only be 43 seconds long, I
started it and finished it and itÆs
perfect the way it is.
The other nearly noteworthy point is
that rather that sit around and
deliberate for hours, days, weeks or
months about which track should follow
which track, IÆve simply compiled them
all alphabetically, which was dead easy.
It took about ten seconds. And I have
only stuck with working titles for the
tracks too. One thing I did notice
though was the date on some of the cues;
Wifeswapper for example was made in
2002. I think it still sounds alright.
If you want rough dates, the tracks here
all fall somewhere between 2002 and
2008.
Also, I realise that so few people will
actually buy this album that none of it
matters anyway and so I shouldnÆt really
have to explain anything. But if you
have bough this album, thanks a lot. I
owe you a pint.
IÆm now off to tidy up my rather messy
office and I shall leave you with a
short list of people who should be
thanked and unusually I shall write the
reason next to their names
