play
mistLY for me is a collection of live recordings from shows over the
last few years. Shows in Adelaide, Newcastle, Katoomba and Melbourne.
Featuring different instrumentation and approaches to songs. Recorded
on a hard disc recorder sitting in the rooms where we played. No direct
feeds from a desk or mics on any instruments, just a stereo track from
somewhere in the ROOM. No overdubs attempted. It’s all here just
as it happened.
released on Cockaigne, February 2015.

Track Listing
you wanna be there but you don’t wanna travel 4:15
This song was first recorded in 1990 on “lure of the tropics” – a
live performance cd- and then in the studio for the album of the same name
released in 1994. We were playing this in a different instrumental style
on this 2014 tour. No drums, just guitars and keys. The lyric strongly
relates to “everything was legendary with Robert” which we
were playing on the same dates.
I will have always been here before 6:04
This segues from “you wanna be there…” but we took this
song from a later date in the tour. There were some loud audience members
talking on the Adelaide version. Song originally recorded for HASHISH and
LIQUR in 2005. I played bass and guitar on e original. Lyric inspired by
a Roky Erikson song, “I have been here before”. Also by a friend
of my nephew who once shushed me by holding up his hand ( with back to
me) and saying “cease-mortal!”
you wanna be loved – 4:32
More of an electric guitar work out from a show in Adelaide in 2013. Stuart
Pereras lyrical playing is quite amazing here, as is the power of Clare
Moore and Stu Thomas on the drums and bass. A song originally from the
album “you wanna be there but you don’t wanna travel, released
in 1994.
the stars, baby the stars 5:47
Details as above. Played in this sequence at the show. Song also originally
appeared on the 1994 album, “you wanna be there but you don’t
wanna travel”.
we don’t belong to anybody 4:58
A song recorded for “rock’n’roll is where I hide”,
an album of re-recorded 90s songs we did for Liberation in 2011. This was
the only “new” song on that disc. Here it is played in the
Council Chambers at Sth Melbourne Town Hall. Featuring the mistLY with
the addition of Mark Fitzgibbon on acoustic piano. Again, nothing really
mic’d up and played at a very low volume level. The song was intended
as a “story of the band” type tune to play at show. “Hi-this
is who we are”
are we goin too fast for love? 4:04
From the Sth Melbourne Town Hall shows. We did four nights there in early
2011. Song originally recorded for “heroic Blues” in 2001.
