“He had understood long ago that the past was no better than the present. That was as plain as day. One had to try to escape, to wrestle free from every era, so as not to be devoured by it.”

― Lyudmila Ulitskaya, The Big Green Tent (2011)

#NowPlaying #ModernComposition
#MusicWomenWednesday

Had she lived, #LindsayCooper would have turned 75 yesterday. She was my favourite #HenryCow member, both in terms of her distinctive woodwind contributions but also her astounding compositional ideas - see Western Culture, side 2. Still, I reckon her post-Cow work is even better. The beautiful scores she wrote for various #SallyPotter-directed projects stand as some of my favourite politically-engaged #experimentalmusic of the 80s. RIP.

#NowPlaying #vinyl #hardrock

Not sure why the recent-ish Future Shock #vinylreissue of the #PinkFairies Kings Of Oblivion LP (a desert island classic imo) irks me so. But somehow this kinda subtle artwork fuckery seems more of an affront to now-deceased visual artist #EdwardBarker than if they'd just slapped a totally different, unrelated cover on it

An astoundingly beautiful, endlessly fascinating re-imagination of both the gorgeous surfaces and mysterious, hidden depths of six classics of the Western canon. My jaw is on the floor.

Nothing more than a practice-pad sketch, but it's intriguing to think this UK top 20 hit might've directly informed the #SoftBoys Underwater Moonlight LP

#NowReading #novel

"There was a night when I was still lying in the bed of my mistress. Yes, I remember it. She wakes with a start, sits up, looks out. Others in the surrounding houses of the town, wake in the same manner. They don't know why. They are possessed by such a strange feeling. I observe them. I hear their thoughts. There's something not right, something awry. The salty air - as if the sea has flooded into their rooms. They don't know it yet, but still they sense it. The Earth turns slowly into modernity. And in the space of an imperceptible moment, the old world has succumbed conclusively to the new."

from The Wax Child by #OlgaRavn (2023)

#NowPlaying #FalsettoFriday #soul #LutherVandross - "Take You Out" (2001) I don't always love this man's material, but I'll never fail to give props to his velvet tenor - especially when it's this song and he's improvising with a little #falsetto. For once, #JayZ and I agree: this is a late-life Luther stone classic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqJtgjsruj8

#NowPlaying #MusicWomenWednesday #Chanson Everyone wants it to be #CatherineDeneuve singing in #JacqueDemy's French fairytale classic Peau D'ane . . . but in fact it's #AnneGermain who provides the princess vocals on #MichelLeGrand's beautiful soundtrack. Germain made a career lending her gorgeous voice to those with more recognisable faces in French cinema/TV. Here's hoping she got paid well for it - her singing was always 1st class. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMLPlazj-90
