DEADMAN TURNER

5 June 2007:
Down by the Literary Riverside & Twelve

posted in music
On Monday evening I recorded these two new songs: Twelve is a fairly long run through a twelve-bar, with all the guitar done in one take whereto I then added (contrary to my usual practice) the rhythm section and other instruments; I did it as a warm-up before recording Down by the Literary Riverside, a very short, vaguely traditional song which I adapted slightly, whereof the words are as follows:
Down by the Literary Riverside
  
I’m gonna lay down my Sword of Honour trilogy, and
Scoop, and Put out More Flags, and Brideshead Revisited.
I’m gonna lay down my Sword of Honour trilogy, and
Black Mischief, and Decline and Fall.
I aint gonna study Waugh no more,
aint gonna study Waugh no more,
aint gonna study Evelyn Waugh no more.
