'COME ON MEMPHIS' was cut in a circus lay-off just outside Amsterdam. A bungalo's empty living-room provided the recording space while a mobile recording unit served as the control room with a four-track recording machine. The instruments we used were an upright bass, a beat-up piano, a couple of acoustic guitars, electric and a snare, bass-drum and a cymbal. We did some sngs from our stage-act and the rest just happened in the studio. We really enjoued doing it and was you can judge for yourself how close we got to 'the sound that once was'. A classic sound that will never die;
NO MATTER WHAT!! So where ever you are rock it out!
