Introduction and Lyrical Quiz Game
00:00:00
Speaker
Good, shall I do the intro? Please. OK, it's a lyrical one. Excellent. It's going to be a dramatic reading. And I've got to guess what it is. You've got to guess what it is after the title music comes on. Blimey, OK. I think you'll get it, but it might take you a while. Here we go. Where did we go wrong? Where did we lose our faith? My brother is in need.
00:00:29
Speaker
but can he depend on me? Do you think if one of you tried, maybe you could find a better friend than any other? If you gave more than you took, life could be so good. Come on and try. Now's the time. Because you're free to do what you want to do. You've got to live your life.
00:00:58
Speaker
Do what you want to do.
00:01:24
Speaker
And I actually think I know that one. Go on, what was it, what was it, what was it? I think it was... I don't even know what it's called. But is it, was it by Altranate? It was Altranate. Altranate. It's called Free, isn't it? Is it? Just called Free? Yeah. You've got to live a your life. Yeah. Oh, I like those lyrics.
00:01:45
Speaker
Alternate came into my life this weekend because I went to a thing at Woolerton Park, the Hacienda. Yes. Alternate was there performing in a massive hat. Massive hat. And I met some women who live on my street and we had a very weird conversation and now I'm kind of avoiding them.
Podcast Format and Listener Challenges
00:02:05
Speaker
You're not going to tell me what the weird conversation was. We don't need to go into that. Hello and welcome to the This R Johnny Domino podcast.
00:02:13
Speaker
My name is Steve. And I am Giles. And what we do on this podcast is we listen to songs that we recorded about 30 years ago. And other stuff. And other stuff with a view to creating a compilation volume called The Best of This Are Johnny Domino. That is what we are doing. Yeah. And we're also getting in touch with people that we used to know. Yeah. And still do know.
00:02:40
Speaker
and and connecting with people that record music. Yes. First order of business today is that if you are a regular listener to the podcast, we did an engagement opportunity where we we read out some lyrics that we found in an old book called Rock Talk. Yes, we did. and We were obsessed with this book for quite a while, weren't we? Yeah. and It was about how to be a rock star. and We found the lyrics weird and intriguing.
00:03:08
Speaker
And they were by a band that we thought maybe was just an inventor band called Out To Lunch with members Dale and John T. And the lyrics entered up own personal mythology, especially the phrase, all them trimmings. Zooming ahead to earlier this year, we challenged our listeners to write music for those lyrics and to create original songs.
00:03:32
Speaker
which they did with Greater Plum. And you can listen to those episodes. They're called All Them Trimmings, 1-3. And if you are listening to this podcast on the day that it comes out, which is the 12th of September, 2024, then you will be able to go onto streaming sites and listen to a compilation of the songs that were submitted in full and Also on that compilation is a recording that was sent by Dale of Out to Lunch's own version of those lyrics, disappointingly not called all them trimmings, but called Creativity. Yeah, it's an actual real song. It's an actual real song.
00:04:12
Speaker
We didn't even think the band was real. I know I didn't. So yeah, All Them Trimmins, this is our Johnny Domino compilation and it is being released on our friends label, Artists Against Success. Artists Against Success ah released a lot of Johnny Domino albums yeah and And obviously, because we're recording this episode in advance, I don't have the link for Spotify.
Compilation Release and French Fan Connection
00:04:36
Speaker
I'll get add it to the show notes so as I get it. But if you go to artistsagainstsuccess.bandcamp dot.com, you will be able to see the compilation on there, and you'll be able to download it. There you go. And it features many artists, including erstwhilefriend, Von Vorten, MJ Hibbert, and others. And us. And us.
00:05:00
Speaker
yeah that' fabulous isn't it i'm i'm very excited to listen to the whole thing yeah because i guess as good as mine larry one thing sure spec clay's dead murder and somebody's responsible. There you go. yeah We've got a lot to talk about today. We do. ah But the first thing we're going to talk about is a bit of a story of something that happened to us back in the olden days when we were recording a lot of this stuff. It's about our connection with France. A wee wee wee wee.
00:05:38
Speaker
um That's the limit of your French, isn't it? No, no. Oui le pissine. Pompon mousse, baguette, brie. Okay. We mentioned you in the past our friend Jock. Now, he was very plugged into an international community of fanzines. He created his own fanzine and compilation tapes, sent them all over the place. He included Johnny Domino recordings, which meant we've got some very exciting mail coming from all over Europe and elsewhere.
00:06:04
Speaker
The World and Elsewhere. We did. And one of the places where we got some interesting posts from was France. And a couple of people called Virginia and Lauren. And they were very nice people, sent us great letters. They did. Great compilations as well, really great music as well. Compilations were good. I remember listening to them a lot, tape compilations. with One of the bands I really remember was Little Rabbits. The Little Rabbits. The Little Rabbits. They were really good.
00:06:33
Speaker
Chunky, three chickens dancing in the sun
00:07:09
Speaker
Yeah, catchy stuff. Yeah, some really great stuff. And through our conversations they asked us for songs that they could include on their own compilation tapes. Then they started talking to us about maybe releasing something on a record label that they were starting up.
00:07:25
Speaker
Yes, it was called Candy Cherie. Yeah. Yeah. And they put out some singles. They put one of our singles out. They did. Which was called Fourth Butch Master. Yeah. Can you remember why it's called that? Yeah, it was just one of those titles where one of us misread something that had been written on a tape because it had said Fourth Batch Master. But yeah Fourth Butch Master is a lot better. It sounds much more, sounds a bit sadomasochistic. Sounds very very manly. Very manly. It is. Yeah.
00:07:54
Speaker
Did you hear from Lauren recently? Yeah. Once we started doing the podcast, I thought it'd be great to get in touch with Lauren. And there was a guy who I found on Facebook, had a different name, but I'd seen that photo in relation to Lauren online previously. It all sounds very salubrious and a little bit dodgy, but I managed to find him and I sent him a message and said, are you Lauren?
00:08:18
Speaker
and He sent me a phone because he's too cool to write a word and he is very cool and he got in touch and I said, look, we're doing this podcast. It sounds a bit weird. Could you record some stuff talking about the work that you did in promoting Johnny Domino in France? And he sent us a recording.
00:08:38
Speaker
Candy Sherry was created by Virginie Larry and me, Laura Rauner, through an association called The Spacemen Club. Candy Sherry was so-called because of the Jesus and Mary Chains psychokandy and the suicide song Sherry Sherry. The story began in 1994 with demos and free tributes to the Jesus and Mary Chain. Johnny Domino appeared first on two compilations of the label.
00:09:06
Speaker
On the B side of the tape, Good Time, with the p song 4-4, 1995. On the B side of the tape, Press Pray, Just Curly Clove, with Jilted J and Stony Clothes, 1995. After many listings of the demo tapes, which sometimes made made me think about pavement and the wasting by musketon sextants, the band was asked to prepare songs for a seven-single.
00:09:37
Speaker
three were chosen by his band and us, Jilte J, now they can read your mind, the artist, and appeared on the fourth Butch Master singer, which was released on 1996. So the the signal came out yeah on a nice bit of green vinyl. yeah And it was quite a nice thing. It was a lovely thing. It was it was great to be involved with him. And he was definitely, yeah I think he got us,
00:10:05
Speaker
Because we were kind of into pavement. Oh yeah, just a bit. A little bit. But no, they they were just really lovely, really supportive. If I remember rightly, they did want to do a CD single originally. And I think I borrowed a DAT recorder.
00:10:22
Speaker
from university, came back, mastered it, took it back the same day. But I completely messed up with the mastering so they couldn't do anything with it. So eventually we just decided to write this, do a record, which is cool, let's be honest. And that was it. And we, we went away for a few days with me, you and Dick, we went camping and we came back. There was a pile of records waiting for us.
00:10:45
Speaker
It was great. It was pretty good. It was one of those nice sort of relationships with somebody that I've never met, you know.
Unique Recording Techniques and Comparisons
00:10:52
Speaker
Yeah. It's really it's really nice to reach with hands across the sea. Yes. To the Candy Sherrie label.
00:11:00
Speaker
So, are we going to listen to one of our songs off that single? Yeah, yeah. Do you want to listen to one now? The A side of the single is due to G. Now, the thing about this... that Why? What are you making this noise for? Well, no, I was just saying it's quite a long song. I just wanted to give a warning to the people.
00:11:19
Speaker
It's probably the longest song that we've ever played on the podcast. But that was why we did it, because all of the songs that we were doing, I would usually record them on my own and they would be quite, let's say, compact and you would frequently complain that there wasn't enough space for you to get your words in.
00:11:36
Speaker
Yeah. I thought you were just going to say you would frequently complain. and Full stop. Well, you would frequently complain. And but then we decided, OK, well, let's write a piece of music that is long. And this bit is quite long. It's pretty long. I'm going to warn you now, it's pretty long. Lyrically, it's about a young man who is in a relationship with a young woman.
00:12:00
Speaker
and their relationship is not going well. No. Reading between the lines, she's not sure if she's really into him, I think. Yes, I think that's quite clear. Yeah, I think he's a bit too grateful that someone like her, a woman, a woman, ah would be interested in him. So he's pretending not to be into her, really. And he says he's not going to hang around for her, but then he proceeds to do so for quite a long time.
00:12:30
Speaker
as long as this song is. Let's dance.
00:19:23
Speaker
That is a bit paperland. It's a bit payment-y, isn't it? Can we just give thanks to Jack and Olive once more? Because all of that music was recorded in my bedroom, which, as we've mentioned before, adjoined our neighbour's house.
00:19:41
Speaker
including the drums, was recorded in that room. And um sure we were so so very lucky. we were so very lucky. They were not so lucky. They just let us faff about in that sort of way. They didn't mind us making that noise. Luckily they were deaf. One of them was deaf anyway. Right. You see, I was listening to it in the way that I do and I'm trying to figure out how it was recorded. Now I think we probably played along to a click track and recorded the bass
00:20:14
Speaker
You see, now this is an example of a bass line that I made up that I couldn't play but you play it in a really loosey goosey way and I love it. yeah So you're playing the bass and I'm playing electric guitar in the background that only we could hear but it's it's half of the guitar track and then I think we we did the drums and the acoustic guitar on another track just recording them both through one mic at the same time yeah And there's electric guitar, and then there's your vocal track, but there's also another lead guitar, and you playing the keyboards. And I remember there was four keyboard notes. I put some tape on the keyboard. yeah and So you knew which notes to play. And... I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed by that. No, I'm not saying you should be ashamed, but one of those keys, I think it's the D sharp, it's still got the tape on it.
00:21:11
Speaker
because it wouldn't, it didn't come off. So I think it's still on the key. Okay. Well, I can check. Yeah, please do. That's good. Yeah. So was it, was it on a four track then? It's all four track. And yes, it does. It does lift somewhat from let's dance at the start, you know? Yeah. And and it and it does sound a bit like pavement, but you know what? It also reminds me of no, the Beatles and the Kings. Oh.
00:21:36
Speaker
I discovered Johnny Domino when Kenny Sherry Records released The Singer in 1996. The fourth Birch Master Singer made me immediately think of the Beatles and the Kings, of course, the eternal English pop music. And that's Lauren's friend, Damien.
00:21:52
Speaker
It would be good if it was like the Beatles. God, can you imagine if it was the Beatles and the Kings? It'd be great. Imagine if it did sound a bit like the Beatles and the Kings. I mean, it sounds like the Beatles and the Kings in that it's music with singing on it with some guitars.
00:22:06
Speaker
Yeah, it's kind of like if Pavement did The Beatles and The Kings. Not even, but yeah. But you know what? If that's what you hear and he likes it and he did like it, then cool. That's cool by me. Good for him. Now, the other part of this story is that, Candice Sheree, they released four singles and the first one they recorded was an artist who went under the name Dimanche Desiouet.
00:22:32
Speaker
which was a solo performer called Fred. I'm going to say his name is Signac. Does that sound OK? Yes, it is Fred Signac. And Dimanche de Jouer, translator in Google Translate, means Obsolete Sunday. OK. Yeah. And the thing is, they they sent us some of the singles that they were putting out. I think that was the first one that they put out.
00:22:53
Speaker
And they said, or could you do something? Maybe send them to the radio station and get them to play it. And we sent a copy to um Fabulous Radio 1. Did we send one to John Peel? We probably would have done, wouldn't we? Yeah, we did. But we didn't get any response from him. But we did get response from Mark and Lard.
00:23:14
Speaker
Mark Radcliffe and Mark Riley. And they really, really liked it. yeah And they played it quite a lot on their show. And they read out our address and said, if anybody wants to copy, write to Giles and Steve and gave our address out. And some people got in touch. And Candy Sherry, they'd sent us a small pile of these singles. And they all went, didn't they? They did. And we kept one behind for ourselves. However, at the end of the year,
00:23:44
Speaker
Mark and Lard got in touch and said, Oh, it's their favorite record of the year. And they want to play it on the last show of the year. However, they've lost their copy. Have you got one? So we sent our own hour last copy to them, which was kind of annoying. The main annoying thing about this whole process is the fact that we thought brilliant. If they really liked this single, then when we send them the Johnny dominant single, they're bound to play it.
00:24:12
Speaker
Yeah, didn't though, did they, Steve? didn't happen Didn't happen. Probably because the A-side of the single was over six minutes long. Yeah, probably. So we we did our best to make Dimanche Desuet popular in the UK. And we're going to do it again. We're going to have a listen to one of the songs from the single. And and this is Dimanche Desuet.
00:24:38
Speaker
says Absinthe and it's not off the vinyl because we haven't got it. But you managed to find it on Soundcloud and it's a recording like from French radio. on kar san to council san to the co butlanka open and suhel may demo de way they can come on toes up so
00:28:12
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know, is this part of the song? No, no. It's really nice.
00:28:20
Speaker
I like one of them calls the other one an idiot here. has bourgeis si zaol like cat in your
00:28:31
Speaker
not like the rest but so sit and yeah So that was the song that got played on the radio, not the six minute indie pop Beatles, Small Faces, The Kinks, pavement type song that we recorded.
Translation Fun and French Music Reviews
00:28:47
Speaker
but But that was nice though. I can understand why that was played on the radio. That sounded good. That sounded good on nighttime radio. Oh yeah. It was really, really good. I enjoyed it a lot actually. Unfortunately, we can't play any more songs off the single because it had a number of songs on it, but that's the only one that we could find.
00:29:03
Speaker
Yeah, I think it had six tracks on it. Six-track vinyl EP. Yeah, it was a beauty. And it was called, well, I'm not going to try and say it in French because the colour of gold. And Sezz Absence means his absence. Yes. We've been really working hard on the Google Translate, haven't we? Google's been working super hard for us. Fred's still doing stuff. There's tons of stuff on Bandcamp by Fred Signo. We'll put a link. is but Yeah, his most recent album. It's really good, actually. it's really well The recording is great. And it sounds like he's spent a bit more time getting the sound really good. He's spent a bit more time smoking.
00:29:43
Speaker
He still sounds cool. Yeah, it's called, which means until here. And I've translated the album right up. Do you want me to read it to you? Hit me with it. There's some beautiful stuff here. The new album, Until Here, was an adventure between four inhabited companions. Fred Signac, singer of The Abyss. Christophe Joannou, sound wizard. Eric Signor, musical shaman.
00:30:13
Speaker
and Joel Rod. Poet of the End Trails. The dream comes true today like a rebirth. The eighth opus, still published in self-production, is located far from the marked trails. A French song, certainly, but one that is personal and poetic. The music of words, the musical atmosphere oscillates between folk, rock, or baroque, and orchestration of the intimate.
00:30:45
Speaker
You can tell that's Google Translate just going for it. What was the line which is obviously off the beaten track? What was it?
00:30:55
Speaker
and so located Oh yeah yeah, the eighth opus still published in self-production is located far from the marked trails. Yeah, from the marks trails. I mean, thanks Google. You see, I think this is the kind of things that make me think AI is we're going to be all right with it. You know what I mean? It's not all that. I'd like to meet somebody who he thinks of themselves as parrot of the entrails though.
00:31:22
Speaker
Well, that's visceral, isn't it? That's a visceral poet. You know what I mean? It's that kind of thing. That's why I always hated it when, when I worked in arts marketing, when performances would say it was, it's a visceral performance. It's like, right. But you just empty your guts out all over the stage. Well, what do you think singer of the abyss is then? Singer of the abyss, I'd say. Fred Sinyak, singer of the abyss. Singer of the abyss. Well, the melancholic, you know, it's that kind of thing, I think,
00:31:51
Speaker
That's overstating it, isn't it? Singer of the Abyss. But I think it's, you know, he's looking into his soul. He's, you know, maybe you' he sings of darkness, that kind of thing. I thought you were talking about a singer of abyss, like Mandarin. Who? Mandarin. man Mandarin, yeah. This is our Johnny Domino podcast. It's got bongos. Yes, and sometimes.
00:32:12
Speaker
So yeah, listen to some Fred's in Yoke. Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. It's good. It's good stuff out there. And, and that is pretty much the, the total of our link with France. Yeah. but yeah They were the first people to release anything by us. And we thank them for it because it was, it's always nice to get something that you've created on a piece of vinyl.
00:32:38
Speaker
and nice bit of green vinyl and it was one of those great sleeves where it's just folded up and put inside a plastic sleeve and it's just little bits of paper you just keep falling out all over the place. I hated all that stuff. Oh I like it.
00:32:52
Speaker
I forgot anything else to talk about today.
Listener Engagement and Musical Influences
00:32:54
Speaker
Well, we talked at the at the top of the show, as we say in the biz, um ah about the past engagement opportunity to the lyrics from Out to Lunch, available now, as of today, at artistsagainstsuccess.bandcamp dot.com.
00:33:14
Speaker
And we have a current engagement opportunity. We are asking our listeners to send in pieces of music and songs with the the idea of from childhood. So it might be an imaginary childhood or a song that meant something to them as a child, which is what our friend and co-conspirator Mark. Yeah. You know, I've always thought about Mark, right? He's sharper than a thorn.
00:33:45
Speaker
Words that come to mind when I think about him is spry and nimble. Yep. And the he does a bit of grinding. He he does grind. So should we have a listen to what he's recorded?
00:35:07
Speaker
Like a mouse he's flying in the rain
00:35:53
Speaker
Remind me, Windy Miller. Was he Chiggly Trumpton or Camberwick Green? It was Camberwick Green, wasn't it? Yeah. As soon as I said it, I thought, yeah, it's Camberwick Green. Yes. And that was Windy Miller's song from Camberwick Green by Marco. and When he sent it through, I said, your vocal has more than a touch of folksiness. Very nice. Because he we did record a couple of songs.
00:36:19
Speaker
where Mark lent his pipes to a backing vocal and is he's got a real kind of English folk singer type sound to it. And he's a little foker. He responded with two Ronnies musical sketches, Roger Whitaker and XTC have a lot to answer for.
00:36:38
Speaker
So there's an image of Mark's 1970s upbringing. I thought that was really nice. yeah And it's kind of like a folktronica. Is that a thing? Is that a genre? It is now. Folktronica, yeah? Yep. It's a bit of a self-portrait, I feel. Folktronic self-portrait. Makes it sound like it's so far up itself, but yes, I very much enjoyed it. I don't think it is though. I don't think it is.
00:37:04
Speaker
and and And it was a programme that was definitely very much part of many people's collective childhood or all of those, you know, the that set of programmes. I particularly Chigley with the factory and the people dancing when they left work. yeah yeah That was my favourite. That speaks to you.
00:37:29
Speaker
Yeah, when they did their little dance on the on the stage, when they all walked out of the factory. I think about that quite often when I leave work. I don't think we can listen to that.
00:37:41
Speaker
song without mentioning Half Man Half Biscuit. We absolutely can't. Because obviously Half Man Half Biscuit, one of the first things that they recorded was a version of Time Flies By when you're the driver of a train. And I think unavoidably Mark's tune there has got a little bit of Half Man Half Biscuit to it. But they were a really important band.
00:38:06
Speaker
Yeah, absolutely. yeah because they were well right Speaking personally, I read Smash Hits and they were one of those bands that appeared in Smash Hits because the writers for Smash Hits were real indie kids. I mean, they were obsessed with pop music as well, but they were all really into the Jesus and Mira chain and bands like Voice of the Beehive and Propaganda and I mean, when the B-52, when they re-released Rock Lobster, they were featured in there. And they were always talking about Frank Sidebottom, and they were always talking about Half mine off biscu yeah they-Man I remember there was ah there was a really good issue of Smash Hits where they talked about finance in the music business. And they looked at the cost of releases and touring, various artists, and one of them was WAM, and they lost loads of money. And the whole like spread, all about finances in the music business,
00:38:58
Speaker
Half Man Off Biscuit were one of the few people that were actually making money. Yeah. Because they were touring and they sold out their gigs. They toured on a shoestring. They were their own sandmen, their own roadies. They sold their own merchandise and they stayed within the limits and they made money. I think they quite often drove home as well, certainly when we played with them. Yeah. They came in a van and then they just went back home. Yeah.
00:39:25
Speaker
That's it, that's the way to do it, off my north biscuit. They were like the first alternative band that I really got into actually. yeah It was one of those situations where I was still at school, I went round a mate's house. This mate had an older brother with a record player and the older brother was out. So we went into his room and played some records and we played Trumpet and Riots.
00:39:50
Speaker
And I just remember it blowing me away. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe that this music existed. And it was so funny, but also so brilliant. And contrasting to that, the other song, the other thing was Riders on a Storm by the Doors. They were the two things that I remember from that listening session. But both had a big influence on me, really. Well, yeah. what What would be your favorite Half My Life Biscuit song, Steve? My favorite Half My Life Biscuit song.
00:40:22
Speaker
Do you want me to tell you mine? I'm going to tell you mine first, because you've got them I've got a lot of time for fucking Alex Fred Titmuss. And similar to you, my mate David Boltby, he had an older brother and he had back in the DHSS. So I had a tape of back in the DHSS from David Boltby. Yeah. What's your favorite Half Man of Biscuit song?
00:40:44
Speaker
National Shite Day is one of my favourites. It's basically an untalented pub band playing an indie version of Bone Machine with lyrics about having a really bad day. or lock up your mountain bikes, which has got my favorite lyrics in it. There's surely nothing worse than washing sieves and they're the other immortal line. When the God that made the gods woke up and made the gods, that's when I got into the manics. So the tune of coming round the mountain. Brilliant. Absolutely genius. The man's a genius. Yeah. ah We're probably preaching this to the converted with this particular conversation. Yeah. Yeah.
00:41:24
Speaker
As we're talking about engagement opportunities, we got involved with our own engagement opportunity. There is a closed Facebook group called the PRF Monthly Tribute and every month somebody names a band and everybody submits their own cover versions of songs by the band. Now, I've been very much on the outskirts of it up to this point, but in August of 2024, the artist was Wilco.
00:41:54
Speaker
I'm a big fan of Wilco in the writing of Jeff Tweedy, so I suggested that me and you get off our arses and record a Wilco adjacent song. And it was a song by Golden Smok called A Long Time Ago. We did.
00:45:00
Speaker
So that was our version of a song called Long Time Ago written by Golden Smog and in that case it was written by Jeff Tweedy and Gary I want to say, Louris of the Jayhawks. They wrote it together. Obviously in the original, it was about, I'm assuming it was Jeff Tweedy and his sister, but it could be Gary and his sister, who knows. And you wrote the words about me and you. I rewrote it. Probably the quickest we've ever worked on a song. Yeah, it was good. I enjoyed doing it. It was fun. Yeah. But I'm a bit disappointed.
00:45:37
Speaker
because apparently there's a competition and we didn't win no with that. And I wanted to choose the the next artist. I know, I know. That's what happens. The the prize for winning the competition, such as it is, it's a close to Facebook group. So only people who are in the group can vote. Yeah, we didn't win. And the person who won chose Blur.

Speaker
You know who I would have chosen? ah Tell me. Half Man, Half Biscuit. Or Banana Rama. That would have been a bit more fun than Blur. Anyway, if you want to listen to that song again, it's available at Bankamp. The link will be in the show notes. Yes. And listen to some others. I am Wilbraham, our mate, and also Frankie Machine.
