This is the first in a series of videos I'm uploading (as mentioned a few days ago), to document my musical progression from utterly rubbish, to somewhat mediocre.I was prompted to do these videos after finding some 20 year old tapes that I thought were lost, and then discovering that I could almost completely remove the terrible tape hiss using Audacity audio editing software.
I'm entirely aware that this tune is bloody awful, so comments stating that "You can't play" or "That's crap" are completely redundant.
This was recorded in 1988 and represents the best effort by a bunch of teens who could neither play nor sing, but were having a lot of fun making quite a racket.
No clever recording equipment was used. We simply placed our amps around a cheap mono tape recorder at the appropriate distances to get the right volumes, while the "singer" simply screamed as loud as he could.
Musical influences were a few local (Milton Keynes) alternative bands - Claire, The Sally Harper Project and Despair, and the infamous Manchester band - The Fall.
