The Electric Mainline -with The Koolaid Electric Company - Let Me Drift Away

Scott from The Electric Mainline says this on his blog:

Let Me Drift Away was recorded with Fran and The Koolaid boys - Dean, Sam & Dave (the Koolaid Electric Mainline anyone?) - last Sunday round at Dean's gaff. We had a blast recording it and we did one rehearsal of this song which sounded uncannily like the VU jamming with the Mary Chain - well it sounded like that from where I was standing..... We couldn't recapture that for the recording, but we have got this version which does come somewhere near. Ok, this recording has mistakes in, but it sounds so broken and fragile, and to me thats where the beauty lies.... this is why I adore this version so much... I love it so much more than the original. It was made with a lot of fun, goodwill and kindness... and thats why I've uploaded it as a free download - we've got to spread the love...

Lazy Sinatra - Why Don't You Ask You

Mysterious, and no, the guy on the left is not this artist! I played this song on my contribution to Three Men In A Pod No 1, and thought it would work really well with the opening song.

"Endearing English roustabouts equally influenced by Ian Dury, London buses and cafeterias which smell like the inside of ancient handbags. These guys write catchy, hooky, nicely nicely indie music. Yes they do."-GREASY LIPS CLUB NIGHT
