Track:That lucky old sun on the move....
Quote by Black Cab:
"Dear black cabs," the email began, "Would you please consider filming a session with Brian Wilson (of the Beach boys)."
A few weeks later we were outside abbey studios, with the taxi humming patiently behind us, nervously awaiting one of the most influential songwriters of all time and then he emerged with his band, five of them in total.
A bit tricky that because, of course, you can only sit five in the back of cab, and seeing as there were two of us to film and record sound, that made an unlucky seven in total, so we jettisoned sound recording duties, made the five of them comfortable, and wedged our cameraman in an awkward stress position between the jump seats, and we were away.
Amazingly, after performing That lucky old sun, the band broke out into California girls.
Quote by ZR... woot!!!!!!!!!!
