Flesh Number One (Beatle Dennis) - Gritt covers Hitchcock

[Gritter]

His name has been mentioned on the sight a few times lately so I thought I should post one of his tunes that I play.

From the infamous 1988 album Globe of Frogs...Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians...

This one's for ORH and Ol' R.H. and all you fegmaniacs.

Enjoy,

Gritts.

Sandy, I'm a big Robyn Hitchcock fan from way back - and dude, I love your cover of this classic tune!! You really put it all together well.

Trivia point: that hooky guitar riff on the original came from Peter Buck of R.E.M., one of my favorite guitar players.

I saw Robyn Hitchcock on his 'I Often Dream of Trains' tour back in the fall of 2008 - great show.

Fucking hell, that was great Sandy...made my day!  

cheers,
cuth

Not familiar with the original, but this sounds really cool ~ great vocals & strummin guitar!!  Backing vox adds nicely to the song as well!

I'm not familiar with the original, but this sounds good. You sing this (and play, too) very well. I like also the production - it is so clear. Fine job, Sandy!
