It was one of the early (of many) songwriting collaborations between Bill Scott and Roger Ilott (the first being ‘ Trochus Boats' ). ‘The Monkeys Sing Soprano (Around Stanthorpe In July)' was recorded in the relocated Restless Studio at Storm King Dam, at Stanthorpe in 1991 for Penny & Roger's album “Down The Track”. This track was picked up by Ian McNamara and included on the first “Australia All Over – Volume 1” compilation. The song features Penny on vocals and dulcimer and Roger on vocals, acoustic guitars, bass and banjo. ‘Hey Rain!, written by Bill Scott, was recorded by Penny Davies & Roger Ilott for their landmark third album “Birchgrove Quay” in 1986, also in their tiny backyard Balmain studio, on the new 8-track machine. Dave Lambert added fiddle and Jenny Shimmin contributed banjo ‘Free As the Breeze,' the title track from John Broomhall's second album, was recorded on 4-track, then dubbed over to the new TASCAM 8-track machine, where piano was added by Roger Ilott, and additional vocals were performed by Margaret, Bob and Kate Fagan, Ann and Megan Broomhall and Penny Davies. The song was also included on the historic 1985 album “ Wilderness - Songs for Conservation & Environment” (Restless RM005). The song features John Broomhall on guitar and vocal, Roger Ilott on rhythm guitar, John Spillane on tin whistle, Penny Davies & Ann Broomhall on backing vocals.
