| Important consideration, Perry... establishing the appropriate ambiance. Swing, definitely swing... it evokes the radials, rivets and sculptured alloys of my favourite era of aircraft technology... 30s and 40s... unless of course I'm in the mood for Bebop, Cool or Hard Bop... and there's always room in my studio for some Soul Funk to re-energise (Freak Out!) if the masking is getting me down (I hate masking). A friend of mine, who is into panzer models, plays stuff like the Horst Wessel Lied and the Luftwaffe March from the Battle of Britain. Too rich for my veins (anyway, I've gone off things with guns hanging out of them at present)... although I have a soft spot for Kenneth Alford marches when I come over all colonial like... (Colonel Bogey; Thin Red Line; The Sound of the Guns; The Army of the Nile). Know wot I mean? |
