the jbc extend their gratitude to: tony foster for
logistics : alaric and rob for amplifiers : ringo's high for
acoustics : Mike Stout for dinners, tolerance and `fatback' :
the emperors of ice cream for post-historical political
orientation (no more years!) : dave and chris of the lyric
police for a big saturday and many shed sundays : alan mcgee
and joseph james foster for continued faith and support :
and kathie mcginty for watching over.
Too early for me to say, but there's a clean, simple
sound to a lot of this that Condition Blue detractors might appreciate.
It's not a deliberate change of musical policy, just
a gradual personal evolution thing. I'm ten years older
now than when I made Bath Of Bacon, and right now, after all that morbid
stuff, it only really feels like about three. There's
rockin' shit and there's a big ballad or two and some
weird little pop songs and a nice family sing-along about
penguins. I hope you like it.
