Parrot & Cocker had previously collaborated back in 1988 when Jarvis directed the video for Parrot's collaboration with Cabaret Voltaire's Richard H Kirk, Sweet Exorcist's "Testtone", which kinda invented the "Bleep" style of house / techno. Small world, eh?

(Parrot's current guise is Crooked Man, who has delivered some cracking dance tunes and remixes over the past few years)

Well then, you have been listening to the rather insane range of stylings contained in All Seeing I's "Pickled Eggs And Sherbet", from 1999.
All Seeing I were Dean Honer, Jason Buckle and DJ Parrot.
Lyrics mostly by Jarvis Cocker, and guest vocals from himself, alongside Tony "Amarillo" Christie, Phil Oakey from The Human League & Babybird.
Most of these folks are from the city of Sheffield in the UK.
Thanks for listening, hope you enjoyed!

As I said in my intro - It's all pop music to me, mate!

Also tickling me on this album is the re-use / remix of the same backing tracks with different vocals (if you'd noticed), like a Reggae version selection #listeningclub

@ogili @saucer that's good in principle, no idea how it would turn out at all, which is a plus #listeningclub

@corin_ja @woj @ThatNewSound thank you for saving me the effort of dragging Flimsy Steve into this.
I have never managed to *get* gorillaz. Albarn is just too annoying for me, sadly.
