Meg Lee Chin
A couple of people have asked about the rumors that Meg Lee Chin did some recording with Left Orbit Temple.
She did, in fact do a session with LOT while James was in London, UK recording Prolusion at Star Track studios (in Wapping).
Unfortunately, she was still under contract to Invisible Records at the time, so Invisible's founder (one Mr. Atkins) had a letter sent to LOT Central requesting (errr... insisting) that Meg's performance not be used.
Sure, it makes sense that since James and Meg were in Pigface "Team '94" together, performed 45 gigs together, and remain friends to this day, that Meg should have been allowed to lend her voice to Left Orbit Temple, and it also makes sense that having her name all over the project would do nothing but help the sales of her material for Invisible... but Mr. A say: "no way". So go complain to him.
The track in question, "Mirbat" is on the CD Prolusion, with someone else performing the parts that Meg helped come up with.
Meg's vocal takes remain in our archive, sitting so temptingly on a hard disk...
A remix of "Mirbat" is actually planned for future release, and should Mr. Atkins have a change of heart and/or marketing strategy, you can be sure we'll restore Meg's performance to the track in time for the release of the remix.
