Backing vocals questions

#

Started by Kyle Bovine (K B) in General Therapy? Topics

I was wondering what songs Michael and Graham do/did backing vocals on, in particular on the albums. I have a vague memory of Michael talking in some interview about vocals he done on Troublegum, but i cant distinguish backing vocalists too well!

Also, has Neil ever done any backing vocals? who is doing the backing vocals on NANE, is it Andy?

I’m sure Mike does some vocal on Scopophobia.

And i have a gig from 1994 on tape and there are definitely 2 vocals on there ( before martin ).

And Michael does backing vocals life as well. He did so before Martin joined and does now when they’re a three piece once again. He also spits a lot :D

Michael has never spat on me despite me normally ending up right in front of him at the gigs I’ve been to. This doesn’t mean that I’m doubting what you say as much as questioning his aim.

To stop this going too far off-topic, what about Graham? didnt he do backing vocals on some songs?

Fyfe used to do vocals in the early days if my memory serves me correctly; in fact I think he did lead vocals on at least 1 track.
