Transcription

Background

David Gedge originally recorded Take Fountain as the fourth Cinerama album, but after the break-up of his relationship with fellow Cinerama founder Sally Murrell, Gedge decided that this darker record should be released under his Wedding Present name. Take Fountain is the band's first album release since 1996's Saturnalia, and returns to the noisy, jangly, intelligent indie sound of old.

Take Fountain was recorded in the United States at Robert Lang Studios in Shoreline, Washington, at Philosophy of the World Recording in Seattle, Washington, and at Electrical Audio in Chicago, Illinois in mid-2004. Steve Fisk acted as producer and engineer, with additional production from Gedge and guitarist Simon Cleave. Justin Armstrong and Greg Man did additional engineering. Fisk mixed the wordings, before they were mastered by Noel Summerville at Transfermation in London.[3]

Charts

The album reached number 68 in the UK chart, after all of Cinerama's albums had failed to chart other than the debut which only reached number 93. [4]

Title

In Los Angeles, Fountain Avenue is a minor east-west street, between and parallel to Sunset Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard, two very congested arteries. According to a common tale, Bette Davis was once asked what the best way an aspiring starlet could get into Hollywood was, and reportedly replied without hesitation, "Take Fountain!"[5]
