I never met her to be honest but the producer mentioned it to me. It was a case of turn up at studio, listen to her basic vocal and acoustic guitar and make a start from there. Drum and main vocal had been done with a basic backing track consisting of acoustic guitar and keys to give us something to work with. Was quite chuffed with the bass lines i came up with. One track a day which i thought was ok considering i'd never heard them before. Oddly enough she fell out with the studio and never came back to complete the songs. She did send me a PM asking if i'd be ok with her using my basslines mainly because it was my mates studio. I had no issues with them being used. I did manage to get the basic tracks for myself tho. Not my usual style of music but enjoyed the challenge. Dave Edited February 15, 2020 by dmccombe7 2 Quote

Bit of a timely choice considering Expand I have, I was having a reminisce about how the whole Screamadelica album and how much it changed my view of music at that time and thought of the track. I think the album was released on the same day as Nevermind, which never had an impact on me at all - just didn't 'get it'! Screamadelica, on the other hand, was something else. Still is, in fact. In a previous life I worked with someone who had been produced by Weatherall and they absolutely raved ('scuse the choice of word) about him. Properly creative and 'out there'! 1 Quote
