Bendi Podcast #8 [30:07m]: Free Christmas E.P. from Bendi Records and Helen McCookerybook
by admin on November 19th, 2007
Even if Helen is busy finishing her new album and writing songs with Martin Stephenson, she still had a little time to record a Christmas E.P. for Bendi Records.
But it all began when Helen bought a bass and joined the worst punk band in Brighton, Joby and the Hooligans in 1977 (but they had the best songs). She formed The Chefs who did a few Peel sessions and released a couple of singles. After a brief musical interlude with Lester Square (The Monochrome Set) she started Helen and the Horns who did more Peel sessions and recorded a couple of albums. After the Horns split up in the mid 80’s, she “fell asleep for twenty years, and woke up with a head full of songs and a heart full of energy to sing them with”.
A compilation of her earlier works and her last year comeback CD “Suburban Pastoral” (with guests like BJ Cole and Lester Square) are available from www.roughtrade.com.
