A hidden treasure for those who’ve read my novel Exit Strategies, I’ve unearthed a demo recording of Lloyd Parks’ one hit record, Which Way The Wind. Listen to the existential torment of the tragic lottery winner, for whom £13 million is not enough to secure happiness.
Which Way The Wind (demo)
OK so it’s me really, but this is what I imagine Lloyd’s song to sound like. I’ve recently been adapting Exit Strategies as a feature-film screenplay, and I wanted to record the song that sits at the heart of the story. So here it is (and of course you’ll excuse the rough edges).
I’ve just uploaded a new song, this time sung (gorgeously) by Fabia. It’s a cover of ‘Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want’ by The Smiths, and we recorded it on holiday in Germany earlier this month.
Very special thanks to Lisa Lesch for her backing vocals and to Herbert Lesch for producing and mixing the song.
