I noticed on the Radical Face Music page on the website it says this: "I divided those up into two categories, based on their sound. Category one was "Ghost." Category two will be my next solo record" Did you ever do anything with the songs in category two? It certainly doesn't sound like they're anything to do with the Family Tree. Did some of them end up in Touch The Sky or Patients?
Yeah, those songs were divided up. "A Little Hell" from the EP was one of them (though, I changed all the words and some of the chords when I sat down to record it). The chords for the song "All Is Well (It's Only Blood)" were from those sessions, too. Originally set to be instrumental, but I set it aside for almost 3 years before writing words for it, which also sprung the second half of the song. 3 were on Patients: Tall Tale No. 5, Sad Business, and If You Come Back To Haunt Me (which was the electronic version of this original one, which was the actual b-side from the record: http://radicalface.com/player/radicalface/ifyoucomebacktohauntme.mp3). I also had this little piano piece: http://radicalface.com/player/radicalface/thelighthouse.mp3 And then there's this track, which I gave to a compilation: http://radicalface.com/music/home.mp3 The rest I just never finished.
I can't wait to download those tracks when I get home, I love finding new Radical Face music! But Ben, if you have lots of unused tracks on your harddrive, I know us fans would love to hear them, even pay for them if you released them in cool packages. I'm sure you have more than enough on your plate right now but in the future, it'd be nice!
Thanks for those Ben, its always great to see how, why and when the songs were made and its even better to hear un-released ones! They were new to me too. As said above, I think we would all enjoy hearing any of your songs that are sitting around on your hardrive
