    Live @ Glasgow Pavillion 1990
    A gem of a release entitled Live @ Glasgow Pavilion
    A brilliant gig still talked about to this day, somehow found its way into Martin’s hands after a gig a a few years back.
    We do know it was mixed and recorded by our sound man Mr Gerard Rolfe, whose company Coast to Coast hailed from Bradford.
    This is the Daintees in effortless swing, “an absolutely brilliant gig” were the words of our mastering engineer Mark Lough last week as he was busy mastering.
    The sound quality is outstanding with just one of two authentic crackles.

lyrics

Me and Mathew

In the greenhouse, my Grandfather and me!

Sing little bird sing sing
Sing little bird sing sing
Sing little bird I love you
Let the soul ooze from your bill

Fill up both my lungs with oxygen
Fill up both my lungs with oxygen
So I can breathe in a new day
Fill up both my lungs with oxygen

Share with me your honey buzzing bee
Share with me your honey buzzing bee
Share me your honey don’t you sting me
At least until another year, buzzing buzzing bee

Tell me your tale old man
The tale of long long ago
Of all the beauty you have witnessed
Tell me that tale before you go

Speak of your life old man
Speak of your life Grandfather Mathew
Unfold your magic, sweet clasped leather palm
For there lies your Baccy old man

And pray make us merry Barley wine
Pray make us merry Barley wine
Pray make us merry allow us to sing
Sing, sing sing sing

In the summer of seventy three
In the greenhouse, my Grandfather and me
