Super nice written with enthusiasm and knowledge of music around the people in question. like to read because producers and engineers are often not that well known.
Hey Rick! Nice article! I enjoyed reading it, even though I don’t know anything about the people and even less about the music :-) hey I have an idea for you: Charlie Haden. I’m not sure if you would be interested in him, but he was the bass player for Annette Coleman, and I know your love Ornette as do I. And… He is still alive! So possibly that is someone who will touch the other aspects of what you’re doing. If not,…
Thanks for the article. I was gonna ask have you heard about this french guy who became friend with GG, but then I realized I'd heard of Francis Dumaurier through your post. If I may mention one or two subjects that I haven't seen covered (but then they may have been, it's just that i haven't really researched into it) they are related to two musicians : Chris Cutler and Eric Drew Feldman. Though the latter hasn't, to my knowledge, collaborated with either Gong or Daevid Allen, as is the case of CC, both have played with three other bands that I love : the Residents, Snakefinger's Vestal Virgins and Pere Ubu. Don't think CC has ever played with the Magic Band, though I wouldn't be surprised if he had at some point. The other subject i haven't seen covered is Tom Verlaine's work, which is rarely mentioned outside of Television. I don't understand why, considering the beauty oh his solo work. His and Philip Snakekefinger Lithman's live performances were among the most memorable I've been lucky to have seen , to which I could add Fred Frith .
Thanks again for this great article and interview. I keep learning from you in a way I never expected, and that's great.
What a great deep dive. Thanks!
