Roll a Ferret for Jesus! - HERE!
AND FROM 2005: Black Pig perform the SELSTON MUMMERS PLAY on DVD!
AND FOR 2006, our second CD 'Three Sheets to the Wind' - an everyday story of boat-dwelling pigs - full details at Three Sheets to the Wind - HERE! and full playable, downloadable or sampleable tracks here!
AND FOR 2010 the debut of our rock band - The Undercovers!
The original concept... Early in 2002 we were a bit short of musicians for practices. So we decided to put some of the musicians squeezings, scrapings and pluckings on tape for nights when we were low on numbers, and for newbies to practice to in the privacy of their own home. This idea grew to a CD, and then to selling copies but what we ended up doing was a fully professional set of recordings with proper printed covers and payment of copyrights etc etc!
Therefore what we have now is 73 minutes of 20 tracks which include most border dance tunes of the right length to dance to (this includes a couple of cotswold ones too), a few songs and the audio for the *complete* BP performance of the Selston Mummers play!
I have to say that we are extremely pleased with these CDs. These are not merely tunes and songs bashed off in a hurry, but are properly arranged, have added special effects and the whole thing really is good to listen to. We are already planning sequels....
