Odd
This came up on the ipod on random play. Thought it was a Queens of the Stone Age bonus track. I kept expecting to hear Josh Homme start singing!
11 September 1979 Non Loop Idea IV
This track is now available for download as part of a bumper collection of Mr Stormy's Monday Selections Volume Three - Yes, his third year of treasures from the murky, cavernous DGM archives, torch in hand, fedora upon his head.
With an unamplified guitar and a cassette recorder, Robert sits down to record a series ideas and sketches. Starting with an introduction that sounds like it’s about to go into a rendition of Hawkwind’s Silver Machine, this is about as “rock guitar” as Robert gets. Perhaps this is a conscious reference back to the rocking out aspirations of You Burn Me Up I’m A Cigarette? Moving out from its 12-bar beginnings some suitably left-field twists occur but essentially this is a bluesy vamp, and as such, something of a rarity. Like the previous Non-Loop idea,this one never did find a home and we can only imagine what this might have sounded like played by the League of Gentlemen.
