Eno Collaboration is more poking fun at pretentious bands, although this time a bit more major league than the usual indie targets. Thanks to Patrick and Matthew

  1. Just found this site. A great resource. I’m no good at tabs but I’ve chords for a load of HMHB stuff if it’s any good to you. Fabulous to get the full lyrics to Eno (wonderful song but an absolute bitch to perform). I couldn’t make out that “light aircraft” line for the life of me. I’ll get cracking on the songs you need help with. We’re working on King of Hi-Vis for the next show.

  2. Wow. You guys are legends. I’d love to see you some day.

    Niall – You aren’t in “It Ain’t Half Man, Mum” are you? ;)

    “You get yourself some Ray-Bans and before you know it’s time”
    should read:
    “And get yourself some Ray-Bans ‘cos boy you know it’s time”

    Not only is “From the Indies to the Andes in his Undies” a 1940s song (as the HMHB discog notes point out) but it’s on YouTube …though I’m not sure I could actually recommend it.

    Sorry – I hadn’t noticed the link on Chris’s message when I posted. Truth is stranger than fiction apparently.
