Bap Kennedy: No. People have been telling me about it. Triste: Looking back on that album are you happy with the versions you did?
Bap Kennedy: It's okay. If I had more money and more time I'd have made a better record. I mean we made that record in a couple of days.
The first day of recording we brought down two cases of Stella from Sainsburys and by 11 o' clock we were all blootered. We probably spent more money on booze than we did on the record. We did that first album for the craich really.
I did it as good as I could under the circumstances. I could have done it a lot better though. I'm thinking of doing another one: Hillbilly Shakespeare Act II.
The other batch of songs. Spend a few more quid on it and get a few tasty players in. Triste: You might find that the spontaneity of it all would be lost.
Bap Kennedy: It's very easy to do that. Triste: You've got your latest album out now - Lonely Street - and that seems a continuation of what came before. Hank Williams gets a nod and ... more.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
