简介
Another Day On You: Originally released in '99, Cassette only. This "Bonus Reissue" CD is a remaster of the original 10 songs, with an additional 16 recordings, from years '95-'99. Many of the songs here went on to become Figgs' songs. But "Another Day On You" is not a collection of demos. Post from Wilfully Obscure, 2009: Precious few know about this extremely limited edition (50 copies so the story goes) solo tape cut by Figgs bassist/songwriter Pete Donnelly. For a release of mostly home recordings, the fidelity is surprisingly excellent. More rewardingly, the ten cuts within aren't bedroom experiments or tossed off "extras" that didn't make the cut for any given Figgs album. I dug a little deeper on this tape, and here's some info I gleaned from article that appeared on Donnelly's Myspace blog in a early 2007. (( If you're one of the lucky ones, you might have an old and most-likely, well-loved copy of Pete's solo album (the originals were cassette only, and limited to 50 copies – sorry folks!). The 10-song cassette entitled, Another Day On You, was released in 1999, after the Figgs relationship with Capitol dissolved. Pete was living in Providence at the time, and thinking of ways to reinvent himself and keep afloat at the same time. Song to song, Another Day On You comes off as a very personal and reflective album; even if it was never meant to be its own permanent release. There's almost a scratchy, frenetic energy and even a pained sound to Pete's vocals on these songs that remind me of a mod Rod Stewart – a cooler, mod Rod Stewart – who's gone through a LOT. And the songs themselves, are almost bridge-like in extension of the ones written and played with The Figgs. "I made them(Cassettes) because I was going through this thing where I was like 'I'm going to start doing some solo shows and i should have something to sell.' Partly, I wanted it to be impermanent too, because I had reservations about the material…it's all stuff that was never completely realized. They're just, you know; sketches, ideas. Putting it on a cassette was kind of like saying, 'Hey, this stuff isn't to be displayed as a real permanent work of art,' It's just kind of like a, I don't know – a view of what I've been up to. )) -Carly Marceaux 2007 Many tracks on "Another Day On You" are Saratoga Springs bedroom recordings, Mostly these recordings are from from 3 years living in Providence RI. Though also included, is a '91 original recording of, the song -recorded & released as "Sleaze," on (The Figgs "Ginger" Cass). Recorded, here, on 4 track at the parents house.
