Some Songs

Co-Momes Andy Wake and Tim Hodgkinson participate in
’Cement’, ’Damage’ and ’Hunter’.
’Plan for peace’ is a Kalahari Surfers song. Grazia sings.
’Good citizen’s car’ thanks Joey Stack and Johnny Human.
Everything else by Mick Hobbs.

Bandagen

On this music from Grazia Pergoletti’s stageplay ’Bandagen’,
Chrigou spielt geige, Andre Schmid klarinette, Rut Schwegler spielt,
Grazia singt and Joey Stack sings. Otherwise you hear Mick Hobbs,
who wrote the music. Also featured in the production are two tracks
from The Cowboy Junkies, ’Dreaming my dreams with you’
(on which ’Arbeitstitel’ is based) and ’Sweet Jane’.
’Happy days, lonely nights’ is borrowed from The Rhythm Sisters.

Many thanks to friends in Bern and London for assistance.
