Psychobilly legends The Guana Batz are back on tour, but not as you've
seen them since 1987. Their classic 'Live Over London' album was the
soundtrack for many a psychobilly's youth. A gate-fold sleeved way
into the Klub Foot for those kids living out in the sticks and beyond
that never set attended the still mourned home of psychobilly. It was
even more special for those regulars of the Clarendon in Hammersmith,
there on the two nights that the album was recorded, a vague memory
immortalised in wax, well most people were young and on snakebite
after all.
The cover for the 14 track album featured the classic line-up of Pip,
Stu, Sam and Diddle, except for the recording itself Diddle had been
incapacitated, 'Run over by a Dinky toy' quipped Pip as their regular
sticks man, arm in plaster, guided replacement drummer Ginger on
stage. Not that the scene veteran really needed it, he slotted right
in. The resulting live album made number 5 in the UK indie charts
where the Batz had been a regular feature.
The years have rolled on since those nights in the Klub Foot. Sadly,
Diddle passed away in 2001 having already left the band, Sam quit in
1992 but the Pip and Stu kept gigging with various rhythm sections
ever since. Something very special is happening this November, the
'Live Over London' line-up are getting together again for a one-off
tour. Pip, Stuart, Sam and Ginger are hitting the road to recreate
those heady days of psychobilly abandon. The tour takes them to,
Gierle in Belgium Amsterdam, Hamburg, Bristol, Stoke and of course
London. This is will be your last chance to see these guys together
again. In November 2020 it's 1987 again but for just a few nights
only.
