He keeps popping up in my thoughts… is he really dead? We used to meet for tea at The Barbican. CS Leigh… enigma, genius, crazy person… my meeting him and then working on a project together was one of the maddest times. The evening at The Horse Hospital unfortunately unforgettable!

Everyone who is an artist needs to look into subvert.fm NOW. We need to break free of corporate platforms, and this co-op provides an answer for musicians in the wake of a world where bandcamp was taken over and spotify is a pure dystopian nightmare. @subvert.fm

It’s probably some kind of anniversary for the film we made with Shirley Collins… it always is… but who’s counting? What matters is that The Ballad of Shirley Collins is still out there and still making us proud. A film that changed us that made it… #ShirleyCollins #TheBalladOfShirleyCollins

WOW Someone posted the Blue Note 2LP test pressing of Ornette's 1962 Town Hall show. This side was omitted from the ESP-Disk release that resulted from O.C. giving up and signing it over to Bernard Stollman for single disc release at a nominal flat fee youtu.be/su_o2BUHgiM

My friend Dan made a beautiful film called, Washed by the Moon. It is a film about iso-polyphonic singing ("Këngë Labe") and the unique culture and traditions of southern Albania. In 2019 we bought the group here to the uk for some concerts… give the trailer a watch m.youtube.com/watch?v=MizN... -

Well I never… there is a word for it. Good old words: A kakistocracy (/kækɪˈstɒkrəsi/, /kækɪsˈtɒ-/) is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. The word was coined as early as the seventeenth century. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakisto...

Watched Mike Leigh’s Hard Truths yesterday. Best film from 2024 I’ve seen. 5 stars. Makes me cry just thinking about it. Can’t remember when I last watched a movie that made me feel such an urge to try to give more ❤️
