THE CRUNCHY CATALOGUE OF RECORDINGS

Here is a list of the recordings that we have done, some are yet to be named and some may yet be changed or updated so this is going to be a work in progress...

Codes:

C = Chris Oliver (aka 'Mr Pink Wafer / Cauliflower' / et al)
D = Daniel J Harrison (aka 'Lemon J' / Lemon J Puffinson )
J = Jason Lee (aka 'Jammie Dodger')

V = Vocals
G = Guitar
B = Bass guitar
D = Drums
P = Percussion (such as Bongo's or Tabla's)
S = Slide Guitar
AG = Acoustic Guitar
SG = Spanish Guitar

Format explained: - C (G / B), J (D)
So the above means that Chris Oliver played Guitar and Bass guitar on that particular track, and Jason Lee played Drums. As I (Dan) am not listed, I guess I must've gone looking for scotch eggs or something.

The day Michael Palin met Crunchy Biscuits

So Mr Pink Wafer (Chris) and I (Lemon J) met Michael Palin today at a book signing at Broadhurst's bookshop in town (Southport). There was a moment of panic on the way, as I, being the Lemon that I am, got my dates mixed up and brought along:

"Sarah Palin, halfway to Russia (lookin out my window), the early years".

Luckily Mr Wafer had brought along Michael's book, which of course is:

"Halfway to Hollywood: Diaries 1980-88 by Michael Palin"

After about 40 mins of freezing our "finegrs" off in the queue, Michael finally got to meet us. He'd even put the fire on for us, which was decent of him. In fact, although our encounter was brief, Michael was a true gent, a jolly nice chap, just as we already knew, of course.

Just before we walked up to meet him, some nice ladies from the book store kept askin us what we wanted Michael to write in the book. We kept saying it was ok, because we wanted Michael to write his own thing. After being asked a few times by the ladies, I just blurted out "we're crunchy biscuits, so we want it signed to crunchy biscuits." The lady looked puzzled for some reason, and stopped asking me after that.

Anyway Mr Wafer asked Mr Palin to write something about Crunchy Biscuits, while he simultaneously threw a couple of Crunchy Biscuits badges on the table and told Michael a bit about what we're about. I asked Mr Bicycle Repair Man, erm I mean Mr Palin what was his favourite biscuit. Well I'll let Mr Wafer reveal the answer to that, as he has the picture of the signed book which he'll be adding to this blogpost soon, no doubt! Michael looked really pleased to meet a couple of nutters, as everyone else seemed pretty ordinary and just wanted things like, "To Mildred, Love from Michael" signed in their books. He seemed to revel in being able to write pretty much anything (as long as it concerned crunchy biscuits) in the book we gave him to sign.

He shook our hands and off we went. A brief but brilliant encounter. Yes Michael Palin finally got to meet Crunchy Biscuits, and get a couple of priceless badges to boot. The man is surely blessed.

Thanks Mr Palin. What a legend!

Lemon J

PS: on our way out, Palin shouted over at us: "the original Crunchy Biscuits, eh!" to which I returned, pointing back at him: "Yeah, you'll remember that name"

What a day! BUZZIN!!! :D
