Magazine - Real Life

Not listened to this either for an age. Listening to a CD Rip via Roon.
I might drag ‘the correct use of soap’ out later on… but probably not since that would also mean dragging the record cleaner out.

Let’s break out an old cassette. Chicago 82: A Dip In the Lake (Les Disques du Crepuscule) is a “live report” by Wim Mertens on the New Musical Festival in Chicago, July 1982, featuring music and interviews (by Mertens). Dedicated to John Cage, and intended to be released on his 70th birthday, 5 September 1982. In the end it came out in Spring 1983. Very rare these days, I think.

Still plays fine – it’s a mixture of spoken word and minimalist/avant garde music. Among the participants are Peter Gordon, Thurston Moore, Harold Budd, Lee Ranaldo, Meredith Monk, Glenn Branca, Mertens, Cage and Jon Gibson.
