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
Spoke In The Wheel
Isn’t bald isn’t bruising
Has its flaws, it has it’s uses
It is not the rain, It is like the day
It’s more like a little spoke in the wheel
Doesn’t con though it muses
Neither fawn neither aged
It is not the Lord
Though it shuns the fall
Its more like a little spoke in the wheel
Fall, wintorm, ire raise
Fall, wintorm, ire raise
Has its cause, it has its face
It doesn’t cost to embrace
It doesn’t mind the rain, it is like the day
But it’s more like a little spoke in the wheel
Neither wired nor invalid
Cannot be made could not be harassed
It doesn’t rhyme with thumb
And it never sings the blues
It’s more like a little spoke in the wheel
See it pawned see it vacant
Neither fawn, neither aged
It is not the Lord
Though it shuns the fall
It’s more like a little spoke in the wheel

Guillemot Days whisks us to a glistening shoreline, awash with 10 sublime songs full of serene hope. Compelling right from the buoyant opener Edge Of The World and Butterfly overflows with soaring, twangy sunshine. For a fave, so close with the lush vocals, melodic layers of Flowers Of Hope versus Peace And Plenty: an intriguing, modern parlour song both eerie and exquisite, voices and clarinet blending into something quite special. This album is a musical lighthouse on a dark day. Unmissable. anitajoyce

What a tribute, I haven’t the words to say how this group have been the soundtrack to my life, through good and bad.
Anything that helps is the least I can do, missed dearly. Joe Zux

Swill's Sunday night Facebook live gigs have been a rare high point in a terrible year. A superb singer and songwriter, in fine voice and the guitars sounding gorgeous. A great collection of some fine moments and some TMTCH tracks rarely heard live for years.
