about

Ma Prémier Guitare- a tune by 60's-70's French pop star and guitarist Sasha Distel. It's become a favourite tune to open gigs with. I tend to be nervous when beginning concerts, and as a result, we tend to play this tune trés aggressive men as I work out the nerves. Initially, this wasn't supposed to be included. I'd recorded this tune previously on The Waterfall Way album and had no intention of putting out another version. There was a power outage in the studio on the day of the session, which delayed our start and was a huge frustration to us as we only had a couple of hours to work with. As we were warming up with this tune, Sean had the presence of mind to capture it. I remember feeling a mixture of stress, nervousness, frustration and relief to be getting going. The resulting recording was a first take that sounded close to what our live shows are like, so I guess it was all worth it in the end.
