vox on UNREQUITED

#

Started by nathex1

I’m wondering if anybody here knows who exactly does lead vox on this song, ‘cause it sounds a hell of alot like Page Hamilton of HELMET. I know he did the solo on UNBELIEVER and is credited as such, but it sounds alot his barking-style of singing from STRAP IT ON, BORN ANNOYING, and some of thier other albums. I know Fyfe did some vocals on some songs, but it just doesnt sound like him or Andy. Any-body know for sure?
Thanks.

Title: backing vocals…

If you mean the “I know that you understand” backing vocal at the end then that is Chris Sheldon singing. He was the producer on Troublegum/Semi Detached and also mixed High Anxiety

Ironically his ex-wife Eileen Rose sang the backing vocals on at the end of Unbeliever.

Page Hamilton played the solo in the middle of Unbeliever and some “textured” chords on the pre chorus as well…

Hope that enlightens you a bit…

Well I’m gonna have to go home and listen to Troubelgum again, after what Michael said!

I thought Ms. Rose did the vox on Unrequited? And I didn’t know there was guest vox on Unbeliever either! Oh well…

Thanks for the post man! :)

I thought Eileen was on Femtex…? Apart from Lesley Rankine on Lunacy Booth, I never caught any other female vocals on the album…hmm, never noticed any on Unbeliever. Back to the CD player then!

Shit, Femtex, fogot about that! :) Yeah, you’re right.

I remember now - when I got the album I went searching through the credits on the sleeve for who sang on ‘Unrequited’, but found nothing. I assumed it was a woman (either Eileen or Lesley), who didn’t want a credit for that one - to leave a bit of mystery. Never assumed it was a guy!

When Michael mentioned back-up vocals on Unbeliever, he must’ve been talking about Femtex, right? …and typed Unbeliever by mistake?

hahahahahah…alan, you are totally right! I meant Femtex for the Eileen Rose b. vocals but for some reason typed Unbeliever.Doh…

Michael…

btw: as far as I recall there was one other song recorded for Troublegum but we just tracked an instrumental version and never did any vocals on it. Can’t remember the name but I’ll ask Andy and see if we had a title for it…

Actually, MIKEHELL, I’m talking about the main vocals, the “DONT…WAKE…ME” stuff. But thanks, I did’nt know Sheldon was doing the back-up stuff at the end of that song. Did he do any other vox anywhere else?

The “Dont..wake…me” bit is Andy singing. He does all the lead vocals on it apart from the bit Chris Sheldon sings at the end as I mentioned earlier…
