Body Heat

from We Mean It by Dick Smith Band

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Finding old tapes , masters and demos that you thought had vanished is what this is all about !! DSB used to record in our own Teac 4 track setup in Wallasey England , we would do the sessions and pass tapes over to our sound man “Pab” . Luckily Pab stored a few of these tapes in air tight containers for 35+ years .

    We have been going through what we have, again with Pab, and sorting out what is any good and what is not ... this CD is the result

about

PD wrote this one before DSB started , I’ve just heard it again for the first time in years and actually pleasantly surprised.. All the ingredients for a good song are there.. Great rhythm by Paul.. Steve bass punchy and funky an early taste of things to come.. Swifty drummer does a great job.. Pd.. First of many great solo’s.. I remember recording this in Manchester and the studio owner was fixing the control room door with some heavy looking tools while we were recording.. .being Our first proper recording session.. We thought it was the norm… Producer Kev Roberts led us gently and expertly through the recording process….i remember coming back in the van disappointed as I thought my voice was rubbish.. 40 years later and I don’t think it sounds too bad… I didn’t half used to scream a lot though didn’t I..

lyrics

Now when your feeling over 90 degrees.. When the high moon sun is all blazing and bright
Your hot skin all naked and needing a breeze
All you want is the chill of the night
All you want is the chill of the night alright
When you’re feeling over 90 degrees
Steaming reeling bent at the knees
It may seem indiscreet but watch out for
A haze appears from the distant east
I’m in a heatwave and its no delight
Trudging on with those blistering feet
The borders not far gotta hold on tight alright
Watch out for that body heat
