This was my late husband Ted (Gus) Yeadon’s own personal copy which I have reluctantly decided to sell as I am moving and downsizing
The following is the information printed on the back of the album cover:
ELASTIC BAND’S birth was 12 months previous to to
This recording. We got it together in North Wales.
Yeh, it’s been hard! We’d been put down. Yeh,
Enough of our troubles you must have enough of
Your own.
We thought we’d explain the tracks, so . . .
Side One:-
1. MOTHER GOOSE: (Title track) - This was written due to a personal experience. (No names mentioned).
2. LAST PERSON IN THE BAR: a 3/4 Blues for down and out ravin drunks (some nice sax) “HIC” with a rock guitar fade
3. CRABTREE FARM: The Prodigal Son returns (fanfare) back from the smoke to get his mind right. Crabtree Farm re-visited.
4. HAS ANYYBODY SEEN HER: A dedication to a dear friend.
5. DEAR JOHN: This one is for Kit - Dear John I was so alone, Dear John find another home.
Side Two:-
1. ROOM FULL OF ROOM: A number written to ease frustration in our rehearsal room
2. THAT’S NICE: What more can one say!
3. LIFE STILL GOES ON: Musically odd! A melancholy love song with a 5/4 Organ passage.
4. SAD JAZZ: A musical Exodus. Free . . . People . . . Music . . . Love. Haunting Flute and Tenor.
5. SUNRISE WORK ‘TILL SUNSET: Debt to Society . . Paid Free Flute Blow on 6/8 Basis.
Well there you go “Agro” - A - Plenty.
Yeh, it’s alright.
