The very first band I was in was called Simnock On Steel, and we were horrible. That's how we all remember it, anyway. And yet, once Covid-19 appeared and swept the world in a wave of desolation, Simnock On Steel took the opportunity to record a new version of our very first song - Mark III Wagon - and it wasn't as ear-abusingly bad as we thought it was going to be.
Our respective parts were recorded separately and then stitched together in a triumph of unity over distance.
Stove, Jay and myself know how fortunate we are to be able to do something like this while other people around the world are having a pretty shit time. So we share this with you in the hope that it gives you a bit of a laugh, or lets you forget some of the bad stuff for a few minutes.
Looking forward to connecting with some of you kanohi-ki-te-kanohi (face to face) in a sunny future situation when the pandemic is hopefully just a memory.
