. GONNA KEEP ON ROCKING TIL MY BLOOD RUNS BLACK.

Featuring four power-packed covers of London Boys, Jason B. Sad, Sara Crazy Child and Zip Gun Boogie. These are T.Rex/Bolan tracks that I’ve always loved but I thought the original production/mix on most of these songs was a bit thin and/or over produced (apart from John’s Children’s version of Sara Crazy Child which could never be accused of being over produced!) so I slowed the tempos down a little and generally beefed them up a lot, dragging them kicking and screaming into my idea of what they should sound like – I think they just about survived the process so I hope you like them!

Apart from that I’ve tentatively started work on a couple of new songs and also hope to put a ‘Best Of’ compilation together soon… watch this s p a c e.

Why the work of Peter Barron is not yet to be heard on film soundtracks, video games or as a soundtrack on the playout to a documentary on BBC4 about some aspect of the social history of our country in the last thirty years of the twentieth century is something of a mystery.

In the eclectic mix is pure Peter Barron, a pastiche of styles and a dystopian world in which you can never be sure if his tongue is firmly in his cheek as he growls beside the fine harmonica of Neil Seymour on Boogie Street.
