Vintage Errico T Spotted at Stonehenge

If you know this design, based on the first errico.com homepage ever, I salute you. M, I note that I spotted a vintage Errico t-shirt at a Druidic rite last week. As always, it was delightful to have you rocking out of the speakers of our rented Vauxhall as we rocketed on the wrong side of the road through the Somerset countryside on our way to Cheddar, in the Kingdom of Cheese. Needless to say, felt right at home… If you have T shots like this, send ’em in at info [at] errico [dot]...

The first recording of “1000 Miles,” on Pictures of the Big Vacation, is essentially a demo. I’d been sent to Vancouver to work with Ben Mink for a couple days to see if we’d be a good match. We clicked, and thought we could kill two birds by working on a new song. I had the basic musical pieces, he made them work arrangementally, and sent me back to the hotel at the end of the night, saying, “We’ll do vocals tomorrow.” I looked at him, like, “There are no lyrics.” “You’ll have ’em by then,” he responded. I freaked, but got them done that night. If you were to “solo” the vocal tracks, you’d be able to hear me fiddling with the lyric sheet. You’ll also notice it’s the only song on that record that uses programming, via an Akai Roger Linn MPC-3000. The idea was that we’d get a drummer, but of course, that never happened. “1000 Miles” was an orphan in that way,...
