<\/a><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n BAND INDEX<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Bands2C : Boiling Peter Bread<\/b><\/p>\n @ Hand and Heart, Saturday 6 March 1999<\/p>\n “I like a band with a good weird name and you can\u2019t get much weirder than \u2018Boiling Peter Bread\u2019. In fact they have the dubious honour, although some (including myself) might call it a considerable achievement, of being called \u2018the worst named band in the West Midlands\u2019, by Neil Colcouny of that illustrious music rag the Melody Maker; but then \u2018what\u2019s in a name?\u2019 Boiling Peter Bread would sound as sweet by any other name!!! (You\u2019ll have to forgive me for this quote; I\u2019ve just been to see Shakespeare In Love).<\/p>\n The Hand and Heart was packed and everybody I bumped into said, \u2018Hey, there are two really good bands on tonight\u2019. So obviously BPB\u2019s reputation proceeds them.<\/p>\n The band took to the stage amid lurid red lights and what can only be described as swirling, ghostly noises. Drums, keyboards, bass and vocals\/guitar make up the ensemble. Apparently the lead sax\/flute\/cool paper pipe player (the mysteriously titled Hans Spitzlburger) couldn\u2019t make it tonight.<\/p>\n From the first song I was hooked. This is good quirky, eclectic 70\u2019s influenced melodic pop\/prog rock. Driving music, with surprising subtlety at times, with nicely in tune, anguished vocals care of Dave Cross and an interesting line in vocal harmonies from some of the other members.<\/p>\n The accolades must go to \u2018Krispy\u2019 Chris Bucin on keyboards, who\u2019s Hammond influenced sound reminded me of the Doors. His range of sounds and prodigious technique make this band a cut above the rest. He takes in so many influences, from the Stranglers-ish harpsichord intro of one song, to a grandiose sounding Yes influenced number.<\/p>\n They trawl the \u201870\u2019s and beyond with an excellent creative interplay between keyboards and guitar, while some zany heavy rhythms were being laid down at the drum and bass end from Fran Hunter and Fran O\u2019Sullivan respectively.<\/p>\n The chorus of \u2018Knicky Knocky Nay\u2019 (well, I guess that\u2019s what it was called!) had most of the audience chanting away to it, and sounded like an out-take of the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band.<\/p>\n The Doors influenced \u2018How Do You Feel Tonight’ was punctuated by a loping bass line, before a beautiful keyboard motif took over.<\/p>\n At the end of the set there was much well-deserved applause and shouts for an encore, which wasn\u2019t taken up by the band, much to my disappointment. This is well-produced, well structured music, which at times sounds almost jazz influenced. Boiling Peter Bread are eccentric English music at its best; an aromatherapy and pummeling massage for the mind.<\/p>\n Boiling Peter Bread – Dogs BollocksIf you are interested into listening to Boiling Peter Bread on CD, then get hold of their debut self-titled album, recorded at the Depot Studios in Coventry on their own Brian Records label. Also, currently released is the \u2018Dogs Bollocks EP\u2019, sporting a cover of Arthur Brown\u2019s classic cut, \u2018Nightmare\u2019 and also features live favourites \u2018Poster\u2019 and \u2018Jones\u2019.<\/p>\n And if you fancy wading around in mud again this year during the festival summer season, then you may well catch them at Glastonbury. Other scheduled festivals are the Green Gathering, Godiva Festival and The Leamington Peace Festival.”<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/boiling-peter-bread<\/span><\/b><\/a> Another track on Sound Cloud.<\/span><\/div>\n Trev the singer Dave Cross is now in this lot https:\/\/m.facebook.com\/story.php?story_fbid=3313441865565459&id=1886727954903531<\/a> BOILING PETER BREAD BAND INDEX Source of information – John Docker and Pauline Black.
