post it up here in a minute. It's very cool indeed. You might need to sit down.
Mick Magic Oh, sex on a stick... :)
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Too cool for school, huh? It probably wouldn't be the one of you and Peter crouching by the monitor either (West End Centre again) used for the Fox & Hounds gig ticket. I remember announcing you there for that one; "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth, having outbid Charles Church for the contract..."

Magic Moments At Twilight Time Close though!
Philip Hutchinson I liked that photo too, but we were just crouching by a monitor in discussion! Your introduction for that show was great. We had a very fun evening. I think that was our best show. Video clips, light show, lots of silly performance art like wearing cardboard boxes and smashing up dolls...
Philip Hutchinson The snot green paper for the tickets had lain unused in the council office where I was working at the time and I photocopied them when no one was looking.
Philip Hutchinson Do you recall the one-off performance of Oh My Sexy Disco Queen?
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Was that at the first Fox & Hounds one? Long time ago. Anyway, it was soon after that that we released what would be the label's first entirely 'out of house' production, thus setting the future template for M&E, your piece de resistance, the mighty "Please Don't Touch My Yoghurt", reissued in 1992 on M&E proper. And we have to do a track from it, this is my particular favourite, it's called "My Name Is...", no, hang on, that's not the one, it's "Italian Pickle Farming"... ;)

Magic Moments At Twilight Time That is you that does the sung lines, isn't it?
Philip Hutchinson I did nothing on the studio version of Italian Pickle Farming. I didn't even hear the song until Peter had finished it.
Philip Hutchinson Actually, it came out in the summer of 1989. We recorded it in February 1989. I don't think any of it was a joint effort except Satan Went Down To Sainsburys. Peter did all his tracks and I did all mine. I don't think Italian Pickle Farming has aged well. Lyrically, it is akin to the Bonzos and the comedy value doesn't hold up to repeated listens in my opinion. Musically, it is quintessentially what Peter was about. He was a GOOD musician. I wasn't. I really wasn't. I always quantified my presence by saying the purpose of the band was for Peter to create something nice and me to then stamp all over it in muddy boots.

Philip Hutchinson The image for the album, by the way, was from the Crookham Pantomime in 1989 when they performed The Pied Piper.
Philip Hutchinson I think the graphics work was yours - we wanted just the photograph but when completed it turned up with the band name on it.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time We actually released 'Yoghurt' on 13th October, just checked it in Music Master. Ah, Pied Piper cover, yeah, I was wondering where I'd got the picture from. I think it had changed to Jason & Kylie for the '92 M&E reissue. Sadly, of course, instead of 'Yoghurt' launching the new label, I went into bouts of depression because I couldn't get a new stable line up for MMATT together and called time on the whole thing in the Spring of the following year. I don't know, did we keep in touch in between times? The next time I actually have any record of us being in the same room was when I depped with the band at the next Fox & Hounds gig in September 1991, the one where the stage was decorated with lots of photocopied faces.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Here, I have a picture...

Magic Moments At Twilight Time Who's the handsome guy with the dark collar? ;)
Philip Hutchinson Your PhotoShop skills astound and amuse me.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Yes, sorry about the heart attack! ;)
Philip Hutchinson The connection remained sporadically after that - both Peter and I ended up at drama school in London and I think we both found the whole local music scene rather hostile. There was an awful lot of bullying going on in those days. I don't think we should ever have contributed to Scott Wood's fanzine The Gossville Arsonist. I was a nice, polite boy from a small parish - somewhat depressive and intense - and was definite fodder for the snakebite-swilling pseudo-Goths of Camberley. Crushingly embarrassing to reflect on today, but I'm sure we all have these skeletons in the cupboard. It was actually in 1990 I feel we did our finest work. We did a couple of really decent demos with the chap from Internal Autonomy and recorded our noise album Landscape Gardening With Ian And Myra. I feel that has aged best.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time I hope you liked the photo, I went to a lot of trouble to get that! ;) I remember I also depped with the band at The North Camp, and at least one other time at Ragamuffins in Camberley. And I wouldn't worry about that Scott Wood's bullying, he used to make me cry with his spiteful reviews too (I will let it go one day, Scott, promise)! :) Now, once M&E got going properly in 1992, we started to release quite a lot of your stuff, including the unnervingly titled 'Landscape Gardening'. My personal favourite was the slightly less tastelessly titled "Ian Curtis In A Spacesuit", where go we for our next musical interlude. This is one of your acerbic "Fairy Tales For Washington Wives" series, which I still think are an absolute dark delight, this is No. 4 "Cup Cakes", let's have a listen then you can tell me where the inspiration for the mini series came from...

Magic Moments At Twilight Time Twisted! :)
Philip Hutchinson I should point out that I'm not blaming Scott! Ian Curtis In A Spacesuit is the album that, I think, captures what the band were about. This track is making me laugh hearing it again. This was entirely Peter's track but I furthered the stories myself at a later stage.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time I blame Scott for everything. Especially things he wasn't responsible for.
Philip Hutchinson It always annoyed me there was a glitch on the master tape and one channel phases out briefly at the start.
Philip Hutchinson The numbering of the series was entirely arbitrary.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Well, I would ask Peter, but he
