Release expected Feb. 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The battered old grey transit van gingerly makes its way onto the seaweed strewn Roman causeway. Ahead, a mile and a quarter of rocky track leads to a small island. The road is exposed at low tide, but not for long, the driver must hurry or be trapped.<br>He is to collect Colin Lloyd Tucker from his island home, along with his guitar, amp, and two-hundred-year-old Bell &amp; Co. harmonium, a huge beast that is even heavier than it looks, and transport them sixty miles to London.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Their destination is \u2018John Henrys\u2019 a vast complex of rehearsal rooms in North London.<br>Here, Colin will be reunited with old friends and colleagues, <strong>Tim Broughton<\/strong> (drums), <strong>Andy Coughlan<\/strong> (bass), <strong>Neil Huckstepp<\/strong> (guitar), and <strong>Maggi Ronson<\/strong> (vocals) to rehearse and perform a new batch of songs under the title \u2018<strong>Carson Robison &amp; his Oxidol Pioneers<\/strong>\u2019<br>(The title has been changed for this issue to avoid any confusion with the real Carson Robison.)<\/em><br>&nbsp;<br><em>Today they are in Studio 5, the largest room with a generous stage, state-of-the-art sound system, and lighting rigs. They will rehearse until mid-afternoon, when they will open the doors and perform for invited guests, two more performances will follow in the evening.<br>&nbsp;<br>As they are setting up, they are joined by others who will contribute greatly to these shows.<br>Nautical photographer <strong>Den Phillips<\/strong> arrives with the wreck of an old wooden boat, big, chunky fishing nets, buoys, and an anchor.<br>Artist <strong>Peter Rodulfo<\/strong> arranges these items on the stage around the amplifiers and instruments, and the cold black space is transformed. A lobster is placed atop the aforementioned harmonium.<br><strong>Paddy Bush<\/strong> arrives with a binaural head. A dummy head with microphones in its ear cavities. This is rigged up at the back of the room to capture the general ambience.<br>Engingeer <strong>Kenny Jones<\/strong> feeds this, along with signal from all the stage microphones to a digital multi-track tape machine.<br>&nbsp;<\/em><br>All of the above happened many years ago. Sadly, over time, those tapes were lost, which meant that, in effect, these songs were lost too. Only two of these songs would turn up on later studio albums.<br>The day was, if not saved, reprieved by the discovery of a cassette copy of the first evening performance. This is what you hear here; the overall quality is very good, although there are a couple of moments when the sound drops out due to the tape, at some stage, getting mangled.<br>These are only very brief and do not detract from what is a unique and engaging show that could only have come from Colin Lloyd Tucker&#8217;s feral imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More about On Stage here:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/colinlloydtucker.com\/on-stage-12-09-96\/\">http:\/\/colinlloydtucker.com\/on-stage-12-09-96\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Colin will be issuing a new single on October 28th. 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>English Weather<\/strong> is a new song recorded at various locations including London and Chicago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bulk of the work however was done at Samphire Sound, Colin\u2019s studio in the English countryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colin comments <em>\u201cEnglish folk love to talk about the weather, they are famous for it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Not surprising really, in a land that can experience all four seasons in a single day.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Also, they are often reserved in their nature, so a bit of weather talk can help break the ice!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The track has the following credits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>C.L.T. \u2013 piano (using Sibelius notation), lead guitar, bass guitar, recorders, harmoniums, tubular bell, percussion and vocals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sant Chavez \u2013 drums (Chicago)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neil Huckstepp \u2013 additional guitars (London)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The single will be available from all streaming\/download platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>English Weather<\/strong> marks the beginning of a new phase in Colin\u2019s long and varied career.
