  • There are a number of records that I sentimentalise, rightly or wrongly, regardless of their musical importance or wider artistic significance. They mark transitions in my personal or emotional life, or they are simply a soundtrack to a moment locked in time.

    On my birthday, March 11th 1985 one such ‘personal’ album was released. The Sisters of Mercy L.P. ‘First and Last and Always’.

    30 years later to the exact day I released my version of ‘First and Last and Always’ as ‘First Monster Last Monster Always Monster’. Another instalment in the MONSTER set of releases. ‘First Monster Last Monster Always Monster’ is an instrumental, electronic adaptation of the entire Sisters album. My version to some may be a travesty, deemed a novelty recording, even considered sacrilege by others, the devil may care but I don’t mind, those opinions do not concern me. This is my heartfelt homage to a moment in time and a wonderful album.

lyrics

WHERE THERE'S MUCK

Following the smell of damp with aching rheumatoid cramp
Mrs Crabtree creaks down the stairs, she's been dead for years
Moth eaten moggy growls but she's unawares
Greenwood and Sutcliffe sleep, cat skull thrown into buttress deep
100,000 plague victims seep, into the mire

Nebby Nora twitches her curtains
She tuts disapprovingly
...of one thing I am certain
She's got her evil eye on me

Cold pikelets on filthy plate
Satanic mills, blackened, ice-cold slate
Tumours and communicable diseases
Greenies and violent sneezes

O' aye love, and 'How do Duck'
Yet another round of terrible of bad luck
'Where there's muck there's brass and brass there's muck'
..and this time things were real messy

I had to get out, take Punto t'coast
The scenic route through Snake Pass
Passing dead sheep and slithering snails
Far away over the dingily dales

Down to Scarborough and onto Robin Hoods Bay
I've seen the light of tomorrows new grey day

Murgatroyd were on me back, it were a big mistake
..and the stakes were high and so were I
A nose full of Khali a belly full of chips and gravy
You get nowt for owt in this game

I had taken all that brass, this kitty cat had all the cash
I loaded the shotgun and took off
With a boot full of bullets and a hacking cough
Consumption... at a private function

There were a time when Murgatroyd were good to me, '
E were right grand in his finery
That were before he started chasing bacon....
Before all the other lasses, the dogging and playground flashes
Now it were time to escape from that mardy MONSTER, the great apeth
