 Steve legacy tour is over. Can I have a spitfire? Yeah, I'm just going to be blundering up in my back garden mate. He was about your new album. What? You mean that you made an album? No, I'm kidding. No, not yet. Not yet. That's going to be fucking... That was so... I'm pretty sure you made them. Get me. No! No, we have some charity doing for us before we do anything like that. But no, I've been saving 14 years since the last solo album. 14 years, incredible. So, the problem is, when I did the last chunk of writing for the solo album, that was before the book of songs took, obviously. So that was, you know, 2015 through 2014 or something. Then 2015, we made the album. In 2016, I had throat cancer. And in 2017, we played catch-up to all the shit that we hadn't had the chance to do before. And then 2018-19, this stupid-ass pandemic decided to fuck everybody up. There was nothing we could do there. The idea was that the solo album should have been done four or five years ago. But it wasn't for obvious reasons. So now we're revisiting it. I get done with these spoken wordshaps. I'm going back to LA, and we are working on it three weeks. And then I could be working with Maven, and Roy is going to be working with the instrumental parts of it. So eventually, hopefully, this year or early next year, we should have a fix where it's going to go out. That's no question. So the decision to quit Maven in 1993, 20 years ago. Shit. Yeah, thank you. How time flies. I haven't gone. So, well, honestly, I was as surprised as anybody else. I don't think people really believed that at the time, because it was hard for people to take it. But you just have to have a change around in your life sometimes. And I just thought that if I stayed with Maven forever, all I would learn about was what it was like within Maven. And in order to learn what it was like outside Maven, you have to leave. Because unless you left, nobody would take anything that you did seriously. It would always be like, oh, bless him. He's doing a solo record. It's not very important, really. Let him have his fun, and then we go back to being in LA. I hated that, right? So I thought, what the fuck, I'll just leave. And maybe say, well, what happens if your career doesn't work out? Well, that's God, or fate, saying maybe that's the best. But if you know that now and do something else in your life, then sit there in some way, a fantasy world, and end up just grumpy at the end. Is there a thematic reason that the chorus of the Kenneville wedding is repeated in the song The Alchemist? Yes, there is. Because they're related. Because the Kenneville wedding is actually about the alchemical wedding. So the whole thing is all one. And the original Kenneville wedding, the story is the Kenneville wedding of Christian Rose and Coates. And that was a legend about this guy, Christian Rose and Coates, allegedly with an occult adept in the 15th, 16th century, 17th century, whatever. So they had this order called the Ross Incrusions. But basically, it's all to do with alchemy and mysticism. And the idea was that William Blake used a lot of the imagery in his poetry and his imagery. So it was an attempt to connect all those things together. So the Kenneville wedding at the beginning, which is sort of an allegory of life, of birth and death, and also relationships because there's a guy walking around being followed by a shadow that's different to him, basically. But the idea is that they've been led somewhere into another world. And at the end of the album, we bring it back with the alchemists. I actually can't remember if I sing it, but I know that the melody is there. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Yeah, it's just done modically, but not that quickly. There you go. Um, what was your inspiration for Empire of the Clouds? Would you ever play it live? Well, Emperor of the Clouds was something that I built the airship, the old one I won, when I was probably six or seven years old, from a kid. kit, one of those plastic kits, right? That was a bit older. No, I was pretty young when I built it, and there was the kit, we had the mast and everything else. In actual fact, the R101's sister ship, don't you know this? The R100 flew to Canada successfully and spent a whole week touring around Canada and had a mast built for it for the Empire of the clouds going around at South Niver down the road. So, any chance for a 5.1 mix of your summer works around South? Strangely enough, we were talking about not so much remixing the old stuff, but it's not a bad idea, but we were thinking of mixing this new record, regular mix, but also doing a special mix for kind of like video gaming type stuff for all the environment that people like to do there. So, we've got a guy teamed up for doing that, which should be kind of fun.
