Sunday, July 02, 2017

of course one of the truly great things about having a composer for a tutor in the Fine Art School where I studied (Gavin Bryars and fellow historian Fred Orton at Leicester since you ask) and studying Dada and Surrealism with artists like Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray and Francis Picabia, Tristan Tzara and many others, is that you discovered musical contemporaries like Erik Satie but also figures like Alfred Jerry, Arthur Cravan et al . . . . . . Here is one reason why this was such a great schooling and for those who think my musical tastes more pop driven . . . . . . . .

About Me

My photo
Andy Swapp
These pages are where since 2006 I come to largely share some musical references to the blogosphere (other music bloggers). I search a large number of sources daily for ROIOs and what we used to call bootlegs, (not official albums faked by charlatans to sell but live recording and concerts that would not be published anywhere else) and I post links to an eclectic bunch of musicians so that I hope it has broad appeal. I do NOT feature sites that charge money for any of this and if these change ever please let me know and I will delete them. It is not my intention to do anything other than share links to sites featuring ROIOs and I do not house any files myself here, This is my idea of musical fun and to relieve the stresses of daily life I also share links to articles, pictures, art or photography as was my background and training and first degree (Fine Art). Those that I have enjoyed or mean something to me and interspersed with occasional general ramblings on the world around me!
