about

This was one of the first tracks I ever recorded. Tom Ellard invited people he knew to contribute to a compilation called Oompa Loopma Riot 2015 which provided the impetus for me to actually finish something. I injured my back very badly around the turn of the millennium, which sort of forced me into retirement for a long time. It’s gotten somewhat better after a few operations, but at the time I recorded this I was going through a particularly bad patch and could barely stand. I had about six weeks, so I spent the first five planning and the last week recording. I mostly remember how painful it was. I’ve since had the nerves in my back cauterised, so while it’s still fucked up I don’t feel it so much. The song itself is a tribute to the Coburg Trash and Treasure (I recorded the background sounds at the trashy with a handheld recorder) and Tony Anthony’s eponymous 1971 Spaghetti Western. I was happy with how the song turned out which encouraged me to keep recording music. So thanks, Tom.

この曲は僕が初めてレコーディングした曲の一つ。トム・エラードが、知人たちにOompa Loopma Riot 2015というコンピレーションへの参加を募ったのがきっかけで僕はレコーディングを完成させることができた。2000年頃に、僕は腰をひどく痛めてしまって、長期間に及ぶ退職を余儀なくされた。何回かの手術で良くはなったものの、この曲をレコーディングした当時は、特にひどい時期で、殆ど立つこともできなかった。6週間の期間があったんで、最初の5週間に計画をたてて、最後の週にレコーディングした。覚えてるのは、ほとんど辛かった事だけ。その後腰の神経を切除したから、完全な腰では無いが、痛みはそんなにない。曲自体は、コバーグトラッシュ&トレジャーマーケットと(バックグラウンドの音は、携帯レコーダーで録った)トニー・アンソニーの1971年のマカロニ・ウェスタン名祖へのトレビュート。出来上がった曲に満足して、それがまた僕が音楽を続ける励みになったよ。というわけで、トム、ありがと。
