about

In 2018 Dave (warfydave) Cooper sent me recording he had done, inviting me to contribute lyrics, vocals and steel guitar. Immediately on hearing the recording, the words to Lewis Carroll's “The Lobster Quadrille” (sometimes called “The Mock Turtle's Song) started running through my head.
We recorded the track and Dave posted it on his Soundcloud website (soundcloud.com/warfydave). The song is still there at soundcloud.com/warfydave/lobster-quadrille-mix-4.
The track I have posted here uses all the original stems except for the steel guitar (which I felt obliged to redo). It has been remixed and remastered.

The Lobster Quadrille appears in “Alice in Wonderland”. It is sung by the Mock Turtle while he and the Gryphon attempt to demonstrate the dance to Alice. John Tenniel's famous illustration (the cover art I have used) pictures both the Mock Turle and the Gryphon.
