The BBs Recording Session - 25th April 2004

The BBs, the band that Nosher's in, pitched up at Rob Folkard's Pennylane Studios to record a demo EP which we can send out to promote ourselves and get new gigs and stuff. The recording goes really well and we get four tracks that sound cool even before mixing (apart from Nosher's dodgy backing vocals :-). It's the first time since the Arnewood Jazz Orchestra recording at 2CR studios in Bournemouth in 1982 that Nosher's even been in a studio...
