EATING JELLO WITH A HEATED FORK
REDIRECT: Eating Jello with a Heated Fork
It is inaccurate to call Andy Colquhoun a side man as I originally did in the Facebook post; he would be better described as a collabarator with Mick Farren and is a full-fledged, latter-day bandmember (mostly on lead guitar) in Farren's band the Deviants (originally the Social Deviants). For example, on the excellent 1996 CD Eating Jello with a Heated Fork, Andy Colquhoun cowrote 5 of the 9 songs with Mick Farren.
In 1996, Andy Colquhoun and Mick Farren hooked up again for a Deviants reunion album, Eating Jello with a Heated Fork (the cover photo shows a human brain next to a glowing silver fork). That was the first Deviants album I had purchased since the original three came out 25 years previously or longer – and was it a sound for sore ears! I just about played that CD to death, and I have picked up close to a dozen more albums by Mick and the guys since then, in a variety of bands and permutations.
