STEVE FAGGOTTER DEBUTS, ON LEAD GUITAR, ON DAWSON GRAHAM’S ‘DRAG QUEEN’

Couple of months ago Neil said he had a mate, a guitarist, who might just be interested in checking out The Shed. "Steve ...... he’s a good player”. “Invite him along” 

In came Steve. He liked what he heard, he liked what he saw. We liked him, we liked what he played. He’s turned up to virtually every Sesh since ! That’s fine by us - Steve makes the sort of noises we like. You might too. Check Steve’s lead licks on THIS .

That is a song Dawson wrote called Drag Queen. Listen up and you’ll click it’s about a drag racing car. Nothing to do with transvestites. The song is a tribute to Sandy Rose, a member of Dawson’s family, who died of cancer earlier this year. Rose’s husband Jerry drag races a Fiat Topolino in Dawson’s home country – New Zealand. The Fiat is called Little Mouse. 

That version of Drag Queen is an off the desk live blast from The Shed. It features what has been a relatively stable line-up of late.  

The recording was cut about the third time ‘we’ played the song. ‘We’ ?
