Twink

10.000 Words In A Cardboard Box/geraldine

A truly legendary name in London's sixties and seventies psychedelic scene, Twink -a.k.a. John Alder- has been a member of The Pink Fairies, The Pretty Things and Tomorrow, before having a solo career that lasts to this very day. His most known song is surely '10,000 Words In A Cardbord Box', now released as a single vinyl 45 rpm, backed with Zion De Gallier's Mellotron-driven 'Geraldine', with Twink on drums. The A-side is a neat and authentic version, recorded in 1999 in LA at Westwood Studios, featuring members of The Brian Jones Massacre and Smallstone, the latter serving at that time as Twink's backing band and performing live songs from his legendary 'Think Pink' album. The flip side, 'Geraldine', is an enjoyable Kinksy number, recorded at Abbey Road Studios in 1968, graced by Mark Wirtz' Popsike production. Zion De Gallier was in fact Douglas Robert Ord, lead singer of Colchester band The Deep Beats, as well as The Fairies. Limited edition of 300 hand-numbered copies.
