"Perfidia" has become a rocksteady classic. We'll be looking at several versions this week, starting with this one from the Hillbilly Moon Explosion.

Always lovely touring with our dear mate from Demented Are Go.
I was ambushed and handed the bass for the encores in Paris, but it's an honour to play Be Bop A Lula with DAG.
I only later realised that my shirt was actually very fitting because, in the pantheon of Welsh music, Demented Are Go sits somewhere in the middle between Tom Jones and Lemmy Kilmister 🏴

Just a brief reminder that we have song lyrics online.
Y'know - if you want to sing along?
And for you Super Nerds out there, there's studio notes on who played what where and all that 😀

This is the Big One, obviously. It’s the song that’s no longer just an HME song. This song belongs to all of you. It belongs to all of us. We shall eternally be grateful to Sparky for putting us on the map. And it still rings true to this day: Love. For evermore 🖤

Some Rock'n'Roll for your weekend!
Call Me marked Oliver's return to the producer's chair with what was in essence a thought experiment: How would Blondie's Call Me have sounded if recorded in 1958? And with Emanuela singing?
Of course, the answer to that question is: Pretty damn good. 😉

Here’s some rock’n’roll for your weekend.
This was the very first video that we did with our dear mate Chris from Bopflix Films. He found us this amazing Tudor country house in Surrey, and we thrashed out this banger together. F yeah.

This was fun. We convened at our local vintage bowling alley, Sparky wore the Tightest Trousers In the World, Duncan and Oliver totally faked the saxophone thing and hey presto - a classic Hillbilly Moon Explosion video!
