Chester Kamen Of David Gilmour & Roger Waters Fame Debuts New Single “Don’t Jump Off The Roof Dad”
Chester Kamen, Former lead guitarist with Roger Waters band and last seen playing With David Gilmour on the 2016 Rattle That Lock tour has been busy writing and working on his forthcoming album,
Last Year, we have seen the release of “Stories” and “The Wife Of The Spy Who Came In From The Cold” which are both featured on the “Take This “ album which is currently in progress.
Now in February 2022 we have “Don’t Jump Off The Roof Dad“
As Chester says briefly “This is a rewrite of an old old sixties hit for Tommy Cooper(lyric by Cy Coben) It’s really an excuse for singing in the shower. Drums are by Steve Monti(Curve, Jesus and Mary Chain, Sulphur) the rest by myself. I used some graphics by my late brother Barry plus all sorts of found / nicked footage. My cats, as usual, make it onto the final cut, but they didn’t get paid. There’s a nod to “Money” in there with the vibrato guitar which you’ll no doubt notice.“
