I played the USF Sundome in Tampa, FL with Outrider
Settling into the Outrider tour, and by this, our third date, the band were playing really well together but these early dates were threatended by hurricanes Florence and Gilbert, with imminent arrival predicted. Here at Tampa, with threat of elemental attack, we played with audience slightly down on the expected turn out. I had played the Atlantic 40th only recently and it wasn't quite as I had hoped. And this performance may have affected the attendance of early shows along with the hurricane. It didn't take long for the shows to gain momentum and the venues to start filling, once the word had got out that I was alive and kicking.

ttt... and to keep it going...
I recorded the main title to Death Wish II
Michael Winner had asked me to write the soundtrack to Death Wish II and on this day in 1981, I recorded the main title music. It was later to manifest as 'Who's To Blame' with my lyrics and Chris Farlowe on vocals, but at this point, it's working title was 'Synth track', which referred to the initial guitar track performed on a guitar synthesiser with further overdubs with guitar synthesiser and melody lines from a Telecaster string bender.
The sound source for this was taken from a white label test pressing that I recently discovered amongst some unrelated acetates. It didn't come out at the time and it didn't appear on the Death Wish II album but it was used on the opening sequence of the film. Michael Winner was to feature music from Death Wish II in the next of the series, Death Wish III.

I finished recording Long Black Cadillac with The Firm
On this day in 1984, Long Black Cadillac was recorded for The Firm's second album, Mean Business. I wrote this with Paul Rogers.
Chris Slade and Tony Franklin provided great back-up on drums and bass. It was done in one take.
