The original poem was written in 1979, and the song first recorded in June 2025 - a few weeks later....
This poem was written on the banks of Lake Mackintosh, Tasmania, where we camped for a number of days. The photos and videos used were taken by us whilst camped there,
Written at Moruya Heads in 1978 during a road trip with my old school mate Harry.
A personal and emotional birthday tribute to someone I vaguely remember
The photos from the original 1978 trip, and the photos and videos of the subsequent trips and visits, are real. The people are unreal...
So if The Originals ever form a band, I'm proposing the band name 'Strangled Cat and the Hisser' perhaps less of a reference to the resident cat Mia and snake Cheryl, and more of a reference to the sounds which might result from such a collaboration.
Band Members:
The Tony and Gaz - very average guitar
De Goils - backing vocals and visual appeal
Mike on 50% (The Kernel) - rip-off manager, dodgy songwriter, appalling lead vocals.
I reckon we'd be a sensation.
