MEKONS - OUT OF DESPERATION (LUXURY CHICKEN SONG): "A luxury chicken is something very special and unique and of great value. It is also a hand-painted Mekons T-shirt with a chicken smoking a cigarette on it. Hagar the Womb are very special and unique and of great value and I'm glad they didn't really split up that night at the Hawley Arms even though they stole our rider." - JON LANGFORD (Founding member of the Mekons, Three Johns and Waco Brothers), 2025 // HAGAR THE WOMB - FARE DODGING WITH THE MEKON'S RIDER (3 BEERS & A LEMON): Written By Ruth Elias & Chris Knowles. Recorded at Church Road Recording Company, Hove by Paul Pascoe 2025. Hags: Ruth, Karen, Paul, Lorna, Mitch, Chris. Sleeve Design & Illustration by LornaTiefholz. Words by Ruth. The label image shows Chris knocking back one of the 3 beers on the train. This song emerged shortly after beer 3 was downed. Fare Dodging with the Mekon's Rider came into being after we supported our all-time favourite band the Mekons a few years back in Brighton. Unlike the Hags, they had a bountiful rider including a bowl of fruit topped by a very splendid lemon. When it came to us making a mad dash for the train back to London, Ruth sneaked three beers from the Mekon's rider into her bag and then found she couldn't leave the lemon! Imbued with lawlessness, we bunked the train after being told we couldn't board it as we had the wrong tickets. We finished the beers before it left the station, but reader - that lemon was never consumed. A sorry end to the citrus but in this song celebrating our evening's gains, it will never be forgotten.
