100% live take from the PBGB Shed :)

Neil has had a spell of writer's block for quite a while but he seems to be back on track again now. Good to hear.
 
A couple of months ago Neil brought a new song into The Shed. It was his intention that we do our very best to record the song in one hit, absolutely 'live in The Shed' as it were.
 
Well we played through it a few times over three or four weeks and reckoned we were ready.
 
So on went the recorder, and within a couple of takes we had it down.
 
The story is easy to follow.Neil's lyrics can be easily heard and interpreted.
 
Shakin' is a fun song to play and we really enjoyed putting it all together. We hope you enjoy listening to it !
 
From Neil:
"For a while now I’ve been wanting to get PBGB to the point where we could comfortably record songs totally live in the Shed - ie, no overdubs, no replacing tracks and no fixing bits that “weren’t quite right “.

I wrote “Shakin’” with that in mind, and haven’t been disappointed. I was pretty adamant that we needed lots of practice, and that I didn’t want to record it until everyone was able to play/sing their part/s consistently well. I’m happy to say that I think we did that.

Lou turned in a solid bass performance here (as she has for our next song).

Mick added a perfect harmonica riff and solo and sang what may be the first PBGB live harmony vocal in living memory. Pete and Graham got the drums and percussion just right.

Thanks team PBGB - I knew we could do it".
