about

Originally released on Chocolate Monk (choc602).

All sounds created with or recorded through a 1960 Harmony Hollywood H39 arch top hollow body electric guitar in improvisational bursts throughout 2022. More than 20 years ago I traded my first ever acoustic guitar to Patric Barber from the band Blowhole for this Harmony guitar and a copy of the Sun City Girls Grotto of Miracles LP. Not sure who got the better end of the deal. I love playing that Harmony. I even like listening to Grotto of Miracles. So I guess it was me.

Uncle Jim (Alan Bishop/Alvarius B) had this to say about the recordings: "was groping for a little more rhumba and calypso from this goblin smirker with his Lomax molded spin pipe-drool but I suppose a Truman Capote underwater soundtrack'll have to do although not sure how many seahorses he can stuff in his Honduran fishbowl…”.
