Michigan Move


Patto

Recommended Posts

I have a Golden Eye boot of the track Pyramid and on the flip is a fantastic Instrumental by The Phrenetics Band.The track is called the Michigan Move.I think this is an unissued track played at the Stafford nighters in the 80s,but i have never heard it played out anyware.Whats the score on this one does anyone know who the band are and does it exist on any other vinyl.Its a real shame that it doesn't get any plays it would be a stormer played out loud.Surely if its unissued it would be ok to play out from the golden eye release,or is it another one destined for the soul police cells

Oddly this was played on the scooter rallies at the back end of the 80s when the Golden Eye boot was widely available. God knows why, but it emptied the floor everytime!

If I remember rightly the track came from a studio tape with loads of different takes on it. Again if I remember rightly it was something to do with Washpan....could be thinkin' of summat else :lol:

Sourced from drummer extraordinaire George MacGregor if I remember correctly, along with one or two other niceties. George was involved with Washpan/Sidra.

Was also told, dunno if it was Guy or not, that on tapes whilst trying to get the intro right that one of the band asks why we messing with this it's shite...or words to that effect.

From what I can remember, I think "chicken shit" was the phrase used.

Yes think you're right Chalky & there's multiple cuts but they couldn't get the intro right, i think Guy got the intro cut off whengetting his "acetate" cut...

Think George MacGregor was the drummer on CODs She's Fire............. extraordinary indeed !
