Spaghetti Bollocknaked by Tricks Upon Travellers (TUT) Duo
Recorded on a Tascam 4 track cassette recorder in my spare room in 1988, 1989 and 1990. Basically whenever we could afford the hire.
We used an Alesis drum machine and a Yamaha CX5M music computer.
We performed live using a Teac cassette deck for the backing tracks. A gig video featuring many of these songs can be found at https://www.youtube.com/user/amokopera
The band would later expand through various configurations and leave the pop world to gain a reputation as a hard rocking, left-wing folk punk band who played their last gig in 2000.
