''Field Of Glass'' by The Triffids was released as a 12" extended play in 1985. All three tracks were generally recorded live at BBC Studio 5, Maida Vale, London. The EP was produced by Mark Radcliffe,〔 engineered by Mike Robinson, engineered by Owen Davies and remixed by Nick Cook at Townhouse 3.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Listings for ''Field Of Glass'' )〕 The first two songs, "Bright Lights, Big City" and "Monkey On My Back", deal directly with David McComb’s drug abuse and are infused with bitterness and desperation. The song which gave its name to the EP tells the tale of a loner who has some unrequited love issues with a rich girl who’s just finished school. He pleads with her to ride with him on a baking hot summer's night and she goes along. Driven mad by the intolerable heat and by her rejection he murders her. This song was originally two songs - "Field of Glass" and "Pleasure Slide". McComb later said, "When we got to London I think we sort of felt we had to make a kind of statement. We recorded the ''Field of Glass'' EP just when we got there, which is still I guess the most aggressive and violent record that we had done. It gave us heaps of confidence." == Track listing == All tracks written by David McComb.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Australasian Performing Right Association )〕 # "Bright Lights, Big City" # "Monkey on My Back" # "Field of Glass" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Field of Glass」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
