Girl on the Q.
Dog in a raincoat starin’ at me.
A woman doin’ a headstand when I get home. She’s crazy ‘bout me.
She’s upside down.
A girl on the Q, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Dog in a raincoat starin’ at me.
Her understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe
Did not come from a rational mind.
She’s upside down. She’s upside down. She’s upside down.
A little red lipstick. A little shy smile… I saw that!
And I got distracted and I tripped back and landed
Flat on my back on the track, and hey! What train is that?
Gonna roll over me! It’s gonna roll over me.
So I’m upside down and now I’m lookin’ up.
And what do I see?
A girl on the Q, ooh, ooh, ooh.
And a dog in a raincoat starin’ down at me.
I’m upside down. I’m upside down.
It’s all over now. It’s all over now.
It’s all over.
Another stellar release from this long-lived ensemble. Though the King Crimson influence is obvious & that comparison unavoidable, these guys have made many great recordings that can't be categorized as 'mere copies'. The perfect balance of aggressive riffing and serene soundscapes. Stephen Roberts
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
