MICK NADIN WARNS..............BEWARE OF MR. FIXIT !

Mick originally set his lyrics for Mr Fixit as a story about a handyman.......you know, that friendly guy who comes in to do the odd job about the house. But while he was running the lyrics around his head Chris Ralfs strolled into The Shed and laid down a heavy hittin' bass line........... no particular context, just Ralfin' around. Chris does that.

Mick loved Chris's riff, and figured he might put two and two together. Suddenly the mild mannered tradey became a rather nasty, not to be crossed, ugly piece of work ...........a handy man with a gun !  A man with a serious nature.   Proud of his workmanship........ indeed !

A song about a dude like that has to pump, no doubt about that ay, so we dialled up  some gritty settings and off we went.

We recorded the basic track, added a bit of this and a layer of that. Neil took it home for a twiddle, and THIS is what came out.

Of course we of The Shed have no issues with the good folk of Frankston........... love 'em...............but we do have a cautionary warning...... ............'if you happen to be hanging out down Frankston way and you come across a nasty looking codger knocking back Whisky Sours, just nod politely and quickly move on...........nothing to see here thank you !!

Mick Nadin wrote and sang the lyrics
