Pea Green Coat

Limited edition 7-inch vinyl single pressing of the first single taken from The Wave Pictures' 2015 album Great Big Flamingo Burning Moon, which was created in collaboration with one of their all time heroes, Billy Childish. It is the last song on the record but the first song that Dave Tattersall and Billy Childish wrote together. The music is all Billy's including guitar on the thrilling giant riff running through the song, with brilliant Brit-blues harmonica from studio engineer Jim Riley. Lyrically, Dave let's rip with his signature word-play and fantastical imagery; "I really did see someone wearing a pea green coat, seeming somewhat lost in a crowd of black coats, in St Pancras station once, and I wished that they were waiting for me. That image stuck in my mind for years, and came out here."
