Comment:

i made this tape for my sister's birthday. she's a violinist so i put some "alternative" violin songs on it (augie march, fourplay, mftcc), this is also me trying to influence her into billy bragg and wilco (not going to happen), and prove for once and for all that the 1940's, 50's and 60's kicked ass in musical sense. the rest of it is just for kicks. I am pretty happy with this, anyway i sent it to her so it's too late for changes!! The title comes from a picture book we had when we were little called 'me and my pink rabbit. this little kid goes to the playground with his pink rabbiot. I thought it was appropriate to go to the cabaret...at our age *L*, not that we don't love a good playground. if you've ever had a go on the swings at cressy....phwooooooooooar!!

Very lovely, Rosie. Are you seeing Billy Bragg on his latest tour, by the way? (he's in Perth a week from Tues!)

awesome. no quality tape is complete without a little ahab the arab, lol!
do you remember a book called the whispering rabbit? about a rabbit who yawns and a bumblebee flies into his mouth and he has to make a very very quiet sound to wake the bee up. my favourite childhood book. :)
