A Little Bit Of Lazy Sunshine [1982 EP and single]: Chelsea Two and Licence
Featuring Rod and Margaret Webb of Chelsea Two - and Licence (Lyle Stacpoole, Peter Higgins and Ian Carpenter)
This song about the Sunshine Coast was recorded in early 1982 and released on vinyl. The B side was 'Desiree' and on all songs the vocals were performed by Rod Webb.
The song recieved some exposure on radio and television with 'Desiree' being chosen by a local Nambour DJ in a featured 'Top 50' Sunday Evening Special. It also freatured Peter StLeger on saxophone and was recorded at Multi-Media Studios in Brisbane with Phil Wakeling as engineer.
The two other tracks on this EP [Know She's Here and Shadow On My Door] have been sadly way-laid in the years, having been recorded in pre-digital times and reliant on tape copies.

All My History
Having again started to seriously write new songs circa 2013 after arriving in Mount Barker WA and feeling a little more settled again, the album is slowly taking shape, with the addition of a couple of previously recorded tracks started in the 2003 sessions and featuring a long-unfinished song from 1975. Yes, I am a horder when it comes to my songs, you never know when inspiration will resurrect something.
