File under 'stuff'
For those of you interested in rare or unreleased tracks, an archive
account has now been set up at:
www.soundclick.com/theeisenhowers
Most of the songs posted on this page will be home demos (of which
there are many), previously unreleased tracks and works-in-progress.
The basic arrangements, in some cases, retain a certain energy that
doesn't always survive the 'proper' recording process and these original
versions are sometimes dearer to the writer than the more polished, professional versions. To complete the picture, each mp3 is accompanied by a little explanation of what might have been the intention at the time of writing; maybe that will help some listeners find something to enjoy in these tracks.
The first batch of free downloads to be posted includes the original versions of two tracks (Useless Love and If I had to make a list) from the first Eisenhowers album and another song (Is everybody happy now?) which was covered by Gum on their 2003 'Low-flying Kites' album.
The other songs cover the usual topics - mass suicide, imagined aircrashes, jaded cynicism, self-deluding losers and so on and so forth.
As usual, the names have been changed to protect the guilty.
