Pok: The Lecher

Posted by Wudmaster on 22/07/13

We have uploaded a remixed and remastered version of The Lecher by Pok to his Anthology album, both at Bandcamp and here at Wud Records. Everyone who bought a copy has been sent their upgraded mp3, so if you are one, please check your inbox or send us details of your new email address so that we can send it again.

The Lecher is a blues/rock jam with fabulous playing from all concerned. It was written when Pok and George were at school together in Ottery St Mary and is a jestful tongue-in-cheek prod at a couple of the teachers and staff from that school back in the early 1980s.

The Chillun: an autobiography by Andrew “Angus” Russe has been published. The former Chillun frontman and band leader found The Chillun’s page at Wud Records and surprised us all with a wonderful account detailing the history of The Chillun. He also hinted that there might be some more recorded material hiding away in his house somewhere, and that he may dig it out and send it to us at some time, so we look forward to that with great anticipation!

Pok: Young Light

Posted by Wudmaster on 20/07/13

Pok spent a couple of days in the Wud Records studios last week, and we have uploaded a remixed and remastered version of Young Light to our shop at Bandcamp and the pages of the Wud Records site.

We also made a remix of The Lecher, which will be uploaded to Pok’s Anthology album in the next few days.

During his visit, extensive work was done on some of the longer songs, including We Know You Well, Silver Ships on the Sea and Centre of the Cyclone, and an experimental preliminary mix of Whatever You Are, Whatever You Do was produced for further contemplation.

Pok will be back in the studio around the end of August.
