I’d just broken up with the mother of my eldest two kids, so it was a massively emotionally fractured time. Valor Del Corazon was my first solo album. Ginger – The Man Who Cheated Death (Valor Del Corazon, 2005) That song could have propelled us where people wanted us to go and if it had been included on the second Wildhearts record, things would probably have been very different. Inglorious is still great fun to play: it’s got this odd structure where it sounds like it could be classic but also doesn’t sound like anybody else. The reviews started coming in for Fishing For Luckies and suddenly the label wanted the songs back… so we told them they could buy them! But then, that was our future with East West they didn’t know what we wanted and didn’t particularly care until people said they liked it. So we took all the long songs they didn’t want and put them on an album called Fishing For Luckies, which we sold to the fan club. album was originally supposed to start with Inglorious: we wrote and rehearsed a double album, but the record label just wanted the first album again. That said, I don’t think success and tonnes of money suits everyone, and it definitely wouldn’t have suited us – I’d probably be dead! The P.H.U.Q. I Wanna Go Where The People Go is always the song I feel could have given The Wildhearts massive success. The Wildhearts – Inglorious (Fishing For Luckies, 1994)
