“1993-10-19 – Letters From Pat Fish
I have recorded two tracks with Alan Moore, the comics writer. One is called Trampling Tokyo with music by Richard Formby and words by Alan. It is a pacific little number about how Godzilla is sick of his job and would like to retire to Monster Island. The other is called London. It has music by me and lyrics by Alan and is DEEPLY GRIM but ROCKING. I’m mixing them on saturday. I don’t know what will happen to them. Alan is also planning sessions with David J. and others.”
