Producer KEVIN SHIRLEY: ROSE TATTOO Guitarist PETE WELLS Was 'The ...

...He was the guitarist from Aussie rock band ROSE TATTOO and had been suffering from I produced an album for him called 'Everything You Like Tries To Kill You' in Sydney in the late Eighties (or was it early Nineties?

) and it was a brilliant experience.

"We recorded the album in 10 quiet days.

In the morning, Pete would come in and bring in 24 beers, bang down a couple of headache tablets at 11am with the first beer (to avoid a hangover) and we'd begin, and at the end of the day we'd have a song finished and in the can, the beer would be finished and we'd go home — and the next day was just the same!

Ten songs in ten days — and that was the album, and I loved it!

"Pete was the gentlest soul, a guitarist and tattoo artist, covered in tatts from head to toe, and he'll be surely missed.

I didn't see him a lot — but every time I went back to Sydney, and I was in his neck of the woods, I'd tell myself I had to get to visit him, but invariably was too busy and never did!
