Another phone call...
"B.J. Cole, who was a mate
from Plainsong days, said he was doing this album with Sam Hutt
who worked under the name of Hank Wangford and invited me to
play on it. Initially the money was put up by United Artists.
We recorded four tracks and UA didn't like them, so they wouldn't
put up any more money. So B.J. just begged everybody to finish
the album anyway, which we did."

"Then
he wanted to promote it - I said, listen, the last thing I wanted
was to be involved in is country music... but he said it was
only three dates to promote the album and the inevitable thing
happened - I just took to it like a duck to water, I loved it.
We had a hysterical time." |

"For
the three years I did it, it was absolutely my ideal gig, because
it combined comedy, theatre and music and it was the best of
all those things for me really. I loved the role playing, I loved
going on stage as somebody other than myself. " |
