  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: She's as Beautiful as a Foot
    She's as Beautiful as a Foot by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    She's as Beautiful as a Foot is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1972 eponymous album.
    Music and lyrics: A. Bouchard, A. Lanier, R. Meltzer.
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn from the 1972 eponymous Blue Öyster Cult studio album.
    The percussion instrument at the beginning of this recording is an old disused CPU fan and its various danglesome janglesome appendages.
    Chuck would tune his guitar to DADGAD for this interpretation of this song.
    She's as Beautiful as a Foot was sometimes used to open longer Bastard Sons of Dennis performances.
    Chuck had the idea to begin by walking through the venue shaking the computer fan and playing small drums, whilst handing out burning incense sticks to the audience, although that never actually happened in the end.
    Derek takes the solo at the beginning.
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar, percussion
    Chuck Palmer - guitar
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2023.
    Original release date 1st June 2011.
    Remixed and remastered version released 3rd October 2023.

  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: Dominance and Submission
    Dominance and Submission by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    Dominance and Submission is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1974 Secret Treaties album.
    Lyrics: S. Pearlman
    Music: E. Bloom, A. Bouchard
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn from the Secret Treaties and Extra Terrestrial Live versions.
    Recorded at 164 BPM.
    During a live Bastard Sons of Dennis performance, there would be a bit of chat, such as thanks to the venue and sound guy and personel introductions, after the guitar solo and before the "Dominance", "Submission" section.
    In the long pauses before "It will be time!", Derek and Chuck would spin their guitars upside down. Stuck on the back of Chuck's guitar was a large sign that read "Throw panties now!", and on the back of Derek's was a similar sign that read "If no panties, bras!"
    Very few undergarments were ever actually tossed onto the stage, apart from on one occasion when somebody had brought a big bag full of old knickers and distribued them to the audience. Both the stage and the band were covered in them!
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar
    Chuck Palmer - guitar, vocals
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK 2011-2017.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies at Wud Records Studio One, central Europe 2023.
    Original release date 11th May 2020.
    Remixed and remastered version released 3rd October 2023.

  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: The Subhuman
    The Subhuman by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    The Subhuman is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1974 Secret Treaties album.
    Music: E. Bloom
    Lyrics: S. Pearlman
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn from the versions on the 1974 Secret Treaties studio album, and the 1975 live BOC album On Your Feet Or On Your Knees.
    The Subhuman was one of The Bastard Sons of Dennis's most progressive songs. Chuck would tune his guitar to a drop-D for the interpretation.
    This particular version owes much to the wonderful live On Your Feet Or On Your Knees recording, where guitarist Donald Roeser demonstrates his absolute mastery of the melodic minor.
    Within this cover there is a lot of guitar soloing. It is all highly definitive and would be performed more-or-less identically by The Bastard Sons of Dennis every time. Both Chuck and Derek take solos.
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar
    Chuck Palmer - guitar
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2023.

  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: Teen Archer
    Teen Archer by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    Teen Archer is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1973 Tyranny and Mutation album.
    Music and lyrics: E. Bloom, D. Roeser, R. Meltzer
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn from the 1973 studio album Tyranny and Mutation.
    Chuck tunes his guitar to a drop-D for the arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    The short drum break on the original version is approximated by a brief outbreak of guitar clonkery.
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar, percussion
    Chuck Palmer - guitar, whoop, percussion
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2023.

  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: Wings Wetted Down
    Wings Wetted Down by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    Wings Wetted Down is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1973 Tyranny and Mutation album.
    Music and lyrics: A. Bouchard, J. Bouchard.
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn from the 1973 Tyranny and Mutation album.
    Wings Wetted Down is a truly wonderful song, often overlooked. The craftsmanship of its composition by the legendary Bouchard brothers is masterful.
    This version is in G# minor. The chord progressions are so beautifully constructed, with a minor second A major and a 'devil's interval' flattened fifth chord of D major providing a gloriously satisfying twist.
    Both Chuck and Derek take solos. Derek's is an addition that is not found on the original version.
    Wings Wetted Down was always a very popular live song. It was performed on many occasions by The Bastard Sons of Dennis and introduced by the band with a cryptic and comical description.
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar
    Chuck Palmer - guitar, vocals
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2023.
    Original release date 1st June 2011.
    Remixed and remastered version released 3rd October 2023.

  • The Bastard Sons of Dennis: Astronomy
    Astronomy by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Album: Cosy Lube Turtle
    Astronomy is a cover song.
    Originally released by Blue Öyster Cult on their 1974 Secret Treaties album.
    Music: J. Bouchard, A. Bouchard.
    Lyrics: S. Pearlman.
    This arrangement by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Inspiration drawn mostly from the 1974 Secret Treaties studio album.
    Chuck would often introduce this song by telling the crowd that it was famously covered by Metallica. "We wrote it of course! Cough ahem..."
    A few artistically tasteful variations on the original have been made for this version.
    One of the composers, Joe Bouchard, listened to it and granted his royal seal of approval.
    Both Derek (panned right) and Chuck (panned left) take solos during the song.
    Astronomy was often the final song of a live set from The Bastard Sons of Dennis.
    Performers:
    Derek Broom - vocals, guitar
    Chuck Palmer - guitar, vocals
    Recorded and engineered at Wud Records Studio One in Exeter UK.
    Produced, mixed and mastered by George Davies 2023.
    Original release date 1st June 2011.

  • Critical Error: Wild
    Wild by Critical Error.
    Album: Critical Error.
    Bonus track!
    WILD
    Down and out and spiralling about
    Give your love but don’t go without
    You are a ghost in somebody’s dream
    You are a dream that someone’s left behind
    I can’t take it, I must fake it.
    Sometimes you make me feel so savage
    Sometimes you make me feel so wild
    Sometimes you make me feel so damaged
    Sometimes you make me feel a child, a child
    How can you turn around and look at me as if I’ve turned to stone
    And if I just walk away, I can’t look back, I must just turn to salt
    All those things I want to say to you and make you do oh yeah
    You make me feel so wild
    Down and out and spiralling about
    I gave my love and I went without
    I don’t understand what this is leading to
    And I can’t comprehend why I feel this to
    Cos your love is an itch that just crawls like a bitch
    Under my skin, my skin
    Sometimes you make me feel so savage
    Sometimes you make me feel so wild
    Sometimes you make me feel so damaged
    Sometimes you make me feel a child, a child

    CRY LIKE A WOLF
    Saw a hanging man, on a twisted tree
    Saw the lightening strike, it never come near me
    Cried burning tears in the bitter snow
    Saw the fire burn where no trees grow
    Saw a drowning man in a raging sea
    Saw the hurrince it never come near me
    Cried burning tears on my face
    Saw the fire burn in a barren waste
    Cry like a wolf, cry like the demon wind
    Cry like a mother who just lost her child

    The wind is wild
    The wind is wild
    Yeah the wind is wild

    SCRATCH THE IMAGE
    You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours
    I’ll scratch yours with my metal claws
    You’ll scratch mine, with love divine
    Cos your in a dream and I’m in a mime
    You see an image, I see a fool
    You love an idol, I play the cool
    And when the act’s over, I’ll take a bow
    Leaving a black rose, for then and for now
    I was then young and now I am old
    I am alone and I think of you
    Cos I was false and you were true
    Cos your in a dream and I’m in a mime
    You see an image, I see a fool
    You love an idol, I play the cool
    And when the act’s over, I’ll take a bow
