Grace and Beauty / June 25 2008
Nelson has gone back to London today and I have just had a quick listen to the drunken podcast we recorded on Sunday.
When I’m intoxicated, my singing tends to sound like a ewe’s mating call and I feel as if I’m struggling with the brain of a citrus beverage, but nelson is always in fine vocal form and did a brilliant job on our duet in spite of our lunchtime drinking session in the Renaissance Hotel up near the junction of the M1 motorway and the A38.
We drew the curtains in the studio and lowered the lights. As we were singing You Do Too Much, the tenth song in this series taken from Electric Baby Grand, there was a bright halogen bulb in the ceiling shining directly on Nelson and at one point, just before the last double verse and chorus, I glanced over at him and it seemed as if he was composed of light.
I will do a quick mix later today in order that it can be uploaded tomorrow – if our server problems have been sorted. My initial thoughts after a few listens are that it is a brilliant performance full of the spunk, grace and beauty that one might expect from two genius songwriters – even if I do say so myself.

It was rather special. My singing always improves when I am totally inebriated, luckily that’s most of the time. It was fun, hope you get better soon.
