Скачать или смотреть Fingerfood - 'In A Broken Dream' (1997)

This upload marks the second appearance on my channel for alternative singer-songwriter Pinkie McClure. Here, she performs as Fingerfood, with multi-instrumentalist and long time collaborator, John Wills (Loop, Hair & Skin Trading Company).

'In A Broken Dream' was a song originally written and recorded in 1969 by Australian rock band Python Lee Jackson. It's writer, the band's keyboardist and singer David Bentley, brought in a pre-Faces Rod Stewart to perform the vocal on it as he was unhappy with his own on this particular track. For his services, it's said Rod was paid with a new set of seat covers for his car. Released as a single in 1970, without crediting Rod, it failed to make the UK charts. Re-released in 1972 just as Stewart's profile was on the rise, it became a #3 hit. It's been covered several times over the years, by such acts as rock band Thunder, once more by Stewart solo, and by Fingerfood in 1997.

Fingerfood's spooky rendition was the first release on FOAM Sounds, an independent label with a plan to focus on electronic releases. It came backed with two original tracks, 'I Love It When It Scares Me' and 'If Only You Knew', and whilst McClure and Wills never released another recording as Fingerfood, they did re-group as Hello, Lumen and Pumajaw.
