Those of you who heard the BTE interview on Access Manawatu the other day will have been taken on a trip down memory lane, as the song "The Shop : An Opera in 2 Bits" was played. This is a pretty strange old track and one that has even been performed as a play in front of an audience of tens.
To help you relive the magic, TurkbyTone Rekkids has agreed to make the track available for free download, for a limited time (maybe a year? You never know with Jim K.)
Fill yer boots by clicking here to get it from Bandcamp.
I've also got it for free at CDBaby
I've never done free tracks through CDBaby before, so have a go and tell me how you get on!
Cheers to the Zornians for organising the gig at the Cabana in Napier last night. A few enthusiastic supporters turned up, and one happy punter walked away with the thumb-dancing prize of a lovely piece of tacky vinyl. Cheers to Roy and co. for having us.
The recording gear from Hotbox Studios has come back from repair this week (aka Slapskins McBOOOm's Macbook) so it's entirely possible that our mammoth recording stint is finally over. Once we've added in a ton of interludes and designed a suitably Turkby-esque cover, you'll be able to enjoy the new sounds of the newest incarnation of the Bing Turkby Ensemble in your living room, lavatory or laboratory.
I've just reviewed Matt Langley's album Featherbones for the New Zealand Musician magazine.
Here's an excerpt: Matt Langley is a one-man Wilco. 'Featherbones' is part Country Honk, part Chris Isaak, and all extremely catchy.
