From Kilkenny, Jerusalem Taxis were Malcolm Noonan (vocals), Kevin Conroy (guitar), Frankie Morgan (bass) and JJ Cantwell (drums). They recorded this Fanning session in 1991. Tracks courtesy JJ Cantwell. Kerbdog covered ‘Something In My Head‘ on the B side of their 1994 single ‘Dry Riser’.
Singer Malcolm Noonan is (& has been for quite a number of years) a Kilkenny County Councillor for the Green Party – one of the few left for that party.
Not sure, if that`s a recommendation, or not?
Thanks for the kind words. The Gun Club were a big influence on our music. There was a great scene in Kilkenny at that time, we fell by the wayside but Engine Alley and later Kerbdog/Wilt flew the flag…Taxis never played again after 1993 but we all went on to form other bands and all of us are still playing music.
Hi. Am using your song for my podcast.. Hope you don’t mind.. The song “something in my head” was stuck in my head for 20 years and I used to sing it on and off and never new who wrote it.. Then I found it posted on soundcloud..through a friend… Anyways hope you don’t mind https://youtu.be/UaUBKJe85vc 🙂 I would have asked in advance if I could have you..
