Digital single available on Bandcamp
Nothing On is a song by Gareth Williams, dating from the late
1980’s, which has not yet had an official release but has been
widely heard and seen through a video which was part-finished
while Gareth was alive and completed by the filmmaker Colin
Harrison as a tribute, after Gareth’s death. It has become a fan
favourite amongst the small amount of material available not on
the Flaming Tunes album and when Officer! played the 2015
Blackest Ever Black anniversary gig at the ICA, it was one of the
three FT/Williams tracks that were included in the set and the
only track from that gig not included in the ’Never Mind The
Bucket’ live document LP as the band wasn’t happy with the
performance – there was always a thought in mind to do a
definitive studio version in tribute and the opportunity came
during sessions for an as-yet unreleased project recorded
in France during 2017.
