05. Fascination St. - El Jezel (mp3)
El Jezel had already been doing this Cure cover prior to the planning of this project, so our laziness prevailed and we went with it. During a Friday night rehearsal they strung up a few simple mics and recorded it all basic like on a Tascam 4-track(classic). Whisky was consumed, bad takes were thwarted, and in the end they got what we needed. A week later George dumped the basic tracks into his digital 16 track and added vocals, sound effects , and more guitars of course. Dreary sweetness!
george jezel nails the seagull guitar on this & of course I've seen el jezel rock this shit live so I had this great, well, DUH moment when it came on. love it! I have to admit, the vocal effect that george has on his double tracked voice kinda scared the bejeezus out of me & it brought on this bizarre mental image of him dressed like robert smith for halloween complete with giant sneaks, voluminous shirts, big hair & lipstick.
