Q: How about "Switchboard Susan?" You originally recorded that for Mickey Jupp's Juppanese album, correct?
A: Yes. Mickey recorded Juppanese with one-half produced by Gary Brooker and I think he did that half first. It's rather unusual to have half a record done by one producer and the other side done by another. Plenty of records have multiple producers but they are all jumbled up. I was wheeled in to do the other side of the record and Rockpile was hired to be the backing group. We cut "Switchboard Susan," and we all thought it was great and we were jumping up and down. The next morning we went to the studio and Mickey pronounced it shit from top to bottom. I waited until he calmed down a bit and told him if he didn't want it I would buy the tape and put it out myself. He said 'Alright, alright I never want to hear it again, it's rubbish.' But he was wrong about that one. It's cracking. |
