Zodiacal Light from Vermilion Air by Full Crumb
Recorded on a Fostex R8 (in an arguably misguided attempt to up the fidelity levels). The indomitable Mark Hassell on drums. At the zenith of his powers. "By his bed replica shooter." This is an in-joke for members of Stoke's micro scene of the late '90s.
Nick Cliff (singer in the great but sadly short-lived) Kings of Comedy (in which Mark drummed after Steve Lloyd left - Steve is an incredible keyboard player and can be heard in full flight on Full Crumb's Further Adventures in Delirium from the album Shattered Vandal Teeth) is actually the one who owned the aforementioned replica shooter. A blank firing chromed Colt 1911 - which nigh on blasted his left eye out during a Kings of Comedy practice. But that's a whole other story from the archives.
