Another
gem from multi-instrumentalist Ian Pellow. An Instrumental
Progressive Rock menu with some smooth sorbets before the
main Alternative dish, played by just one man with the fretless
bass as leading instrument.
1.
Pasta Sell by Date– 4:12
A
little pun that I'm confident you'll get. Great food though.
A little sauce on top, and some garlic bread. On the pasta
of course, not the dates! Ich... I just tried to imagine
the taste; I'll be back in a minute.
2.
Lettuce Prey– 5:14
Yes,
lettuce prey that people will finally stand up against the
corporate crap, business lingo and 24/7. Get a life! And once
you have one, treasure it. Laugh at it, with it, under and
above it, because you do not get a second chance.
3.
Fruit Allures– 4:58
The
title track. A take-off on the famous French expression 'Zoot
Allures', meaning, the attraction of wearing a Zoot. I think
Zappa said it best when he said 'ARF!'. Enjoy.
4.
Quantum Leek– 4:48
Leeks:
from the onion family. Boy, did they ever smell! used to live
beside them when I was a kid. They finally moved away when
I was 9, only to be replaced by the Garlicks. Life is sometimes
unfair.
5.
Give Pizza Chance– 3:20
**Message
to Tony and George**
My parents used to tell me that if I had a difference with
somebody I should try to understand the other person's perspective.
It works. Why don't YOU try it Tony & George? The world
would be a better place.
6.
Cello con Carne– 5:28
A wee
change of pace. Did anybody dance?
7.
Energet Egg– 6:46
Double
track bass, chock full of solos, or should that be "soli"
? E tu Brutus...
8.
Salad Days– 4:30
Sorry,
no pun here. I simply ran out of them. Kind of honey isn't
it? Damn, could have used that one.
I love honey.
9.
(The) Sheep Shag Truffle– 5:12
A little 2-step done
with 3, 4inners.
10.
Fondue You– 6:27
Fond of many people,
enemy of none, I sincerely hope.
We are a compassionate species but we spend most of our time
trying to find the worst in others. Instead, try smiling to
a perfect stranger. If we ALL did that everyday, a small gesture
that is, we would all feel better.
11.
Summer Bries– 7:50
Remember the Garlicks
I was telling you about, well the Bries lived on the other
side. I'm still traumatized!
