Annotations: Conkers Bonkers

This one was written especially for Mr Bob Fischer's programme on BBC Tees, Gobstopper. He does a regular feature around October each year where people play conkers, so asked me if I could write him a theme tune. So I did!

It was written during late July 2008 but not recorded until mid-August, when I got back from the Edinburgh Fringe. After MONTHS of playing the same eleven songs at most gigs it was a LIBERATION to suddenly be able to do something different, which is probably why I went a bit overboard and recorded twelve tracks of backing vocals, each in slightly different accents!
