STEVE FAGGOTTER PLEADS WITH POLITICIANS ON POLLING DAY EVE, WITH HIS PITCH -  'POLIDACTYL'
 
Steve has been a staunch Shedder since late 2015. He has added his trademark Telecaster licks to some twenty PBGB songs.
 
It's been a long time coming, but now, finally, we are very pleased to post the first song Steve has penned for us..... Polidactyl.
 
It's a tune that has morphed and transmogrified as Steve and the players knocked it into shape.
 
We all threw ideas into the pot........made suggestions as to the lyrics (written by Graham Brown), the tempo, the idea of including a rap passage, and so on. It was a lot of fun, but in typical Shed fashion, Steve, as  writer of the song, ultimately made the final calls.
 
In the end, we pretty much recorded it live..........very few post recording production add-ons.
 
THIS is what we ended up with. Hope you like it.
 
As you can hear, it's a plea to politicians to pull their fingers out and take action on important issues like the climate, immigration, straight talk and just plain honesty.
 
All very pertinent as we launch this song just a couple of days before the 2019 election !!
 
Nice work thanks Steve and crew.
