Mr McFalls Chamber: Like The Milk
Genre: unknown
Catalogue Number: DGM9809
Label: Discipline Global Mobile
Released: 1998
Mr McFall's Chamber, the name of the group, arose from a clerical approximation in the advertising of their first gig. The name, however, also signifies a chamber, or room, in which collaboration and experimentation can occur; in which ideas and music from different backgrounds can, for a while, happily co-exist in a friendly and courteous interchange.
Mr McFall's Chamber released their debut album, "Like The Milk" in June, '99, on the Discipline Global Mobile label
Members of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra form McFalls' under the direction of Robert McFall.
As a postscript, it should be explained that the main part of the final track, Janis Joplin's Mercedes Benz, had to be removed from the album, on the insistence of the Janis Joplin family estate, which objected that we had added instrumental accompaniment to what should, in its eyes, remain faithful to its original unaccompanied format. Only the fragment of our version which happened to be unaccompanied in any case has been kept as a curiosity.
