EP17 - I Want Too Much by A House

This episode focuses on A House's second album I Want Too Much released on Blanco Y Negro Records in 1990. Dave Couse and Fergal Bunbury join me to talk about: meeting producer Mike Hedges and recording I Want Too Much on Inisbofin off the Galway coast, the Abbey Road sound desk and equipment that Mike Hedges brought to Inisbofin, mixing the album in Abbey Road, signing to Setanta Records, working with Edwyn Collins on I Am the Greatest, releasing ‘Endless Art’, signing with Parlophone Records and reissuing ‘Endless Art’, the Pre Extinction Tapes – the archive project that Fergal and Dave have been working on to document A House’s entire recording career, and recording No More Apologies with Mike Hedges in France. Dave talks about working with The Frank & Walters on their Grand Parade album, and much more. Dave and Fergal also chat about reconvening in 2019 as A House is Dead to perform I Am the Greatest at the NCH. Episode notes are here.
