Basic tracks recorded at Dave Hunt Studio - 15.10.16, 10.11.16, 15.11.16.
DIRTY SONGS text and phhotographs of Kevin Ayers/Soft Machine (Christmas On Earth Continued, London, 22.12.67) and drummer (The Roundhouse, London, 7.9.68) by David Toop.

DIRTY SONGS PLAY DIRTY SONGS is the musical offshoot of a project conceived by artist Maxime Rossi, originating in (among other things) speculations on the (then unreleased) legendary Pink Floyd “John Latham” recordings (1967) and FBI investigations (1964) into subversive and obscene messages supposedly buried within the recorded lyrics of The Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie”. Developed through conversations between Maxime Rossi and David Toop and through support from Fondation Fiminco & MRAC, these ideas metamorphosed into the band and recordings known as DIRTY SONGS, existing both as audio recordings and audio-visual elements of Maxime Rossi’s installation Christmas On Earth Continued, exhibited at MRAC in November 2017.
