John Cameron - Psychomania

NEW CHEEKY DIRTY FAN MALE CD
Yes, the old DFM CD has now been replaced by a newer, bigger sexier version. And one with tits on the cover too. This version has some new features, which include some killer new letters and even the Spunky Arthur Theme. This is a very limited edition repress. Get one if you do not have one.

This is what John Cameron has to say: RECOLLECTIONS of PSYCHOMANIA 1972

If KES was the best film I ever wrote music for, PSYCHOMANIA was the most bizarre. Jazz and session musicians playing pre-punk 'trash-rock' for a tale of supernatural gore and mayhem, on a Shepperton recording stage more suited to the the LSO than a rock line-up, complete with 'suit-and-tie' recording engineer is one of my more unexpected memories. In a pre-synthesiser age every trick was used: Musser vibes through phase and wah-wah pedals, phased bowed bass, drumsticks inside a grand piano, electric harpsichord through a compressor, Hammond organ fed through a phase unit and Leslie speakers, and wordless solo voice. I know the flautist was Harold McNair, the vibes player/percussionist was Bill Le Sage, and the drummer was Tony Carr. I'm pretty sure the bassist was Spike Heatley , the bass guitarist was probably Herbie Flowers, and the guitarists were likely to have been Alan Parker and Colin Green. As far as the voice is concerned, it was almost certainly Norma Winstone who sang on my 'Marlowe Private Eye' recordings in 1980. Sorry my recollection is a little blurred, hell, it was the 1970's!
