Here are some details about the weekend’s events:
Probably the best and coolest underground venue in Granada, La Planta Baja, was full on 1 April to welcome back the now expanded Tymon Dogg & The Dacoits – once there were three, then there were six! The band then played to a packed house at the lovely new venue the New Georgia in Almeria on 2 April.
The band then headed on down to Youth’s studio south of Granada, called El Mirador, to record eight tracks with guest appearances from Youth (Killing Joke), Dr Robert (Blow Monkeys), Solea Morente et al.
The band recorded 8 tracks at the studio Al Mirador in Andalusia which is owned by Youth (Killing Joke). Youth joined the band on the track ‘Wheel of Life and Death’ and Doctor Robert from the Blow Monkeys dropped by and put a vocal on ‘Something to Prove’. The band recorded a track by the late much loved and missed Jesus Arias.
The recording sessions were followed by an all-star jam involving all the band, Youth, Jota from Las Planetas & Solea Morente.
The future of these wondrous recordings has yet to be decided. But Outsider says they are ‘fucking great’ and should definitely be the band’s first album together…
The Dacoits are: Antonio Arias (Lagartija Nick), Tymon Dogg (Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros), Richard Dudanski (101ers, PiL, Raincoats, el Doghouse), Jota Jota (Solea Morente’s band), Juan Codorniu (Lagartija Nick).
Here is the list of tracks the band recorded:
Casida (words Federico Garcia Lorca poem, composition Antonio Arias)
Wheel of life and death (Dogg)
Chimney sweep (words William Blake, composition Dogg)
I don’t want to be poor (Dogg)
Nadsat (Jesus Arias)
Conscience money (Dogg)
ESA (Arias)
Something to prove (Dogg)
