By some strange coincidence, the UK Neil Campbell's mirror image from the other side of the planet is New Zealands Campbell Kneale of The Birchville Cat Motel . So naturally, they're gonna collaborate aren't they? Throw in Ashtray Navigations Phil Todd to keep the two Neils, or Kneales, apart to prevent them from cancelling each other out, and we have a noise super groop to end all sooper groops......yes even eclipsing Blind Faith.
In the world of particle physics, or even supernatural German mythology, one should never meet ones Doppleganger, or anti-particle, or you face the danger of the stronger self taking your place, or your anti-matter self cancelling you out to leave ........nothing.
I don't know wether this happened on these nights in Leeds in 2003, but the evidence that something creative occured rather than anything destructive is here to...er...hear?. I suppose, if you make a recording of yourself to prove that you existed, then the power of the Doppleganger would be negated? Can't say the same for Matter/Anti-matter scenarios, as the recording becomes a space/time event rather than proof that something will exist in future time.In fact its difficult to prove that future time will exist at all. This is, however, proof that we all definitely exist in the present.So while one plays these drones,the sound may change, but its only evolving in the moment......the next moment we may not even be alive to hear it.......so get listening to some 'British Steel', preferably not the album by Judas Priest, but this one with the two Neil Campbells on it, before its too late. Not that the concept of 'Lateness' exists in the space time continum,but you know what I mean, because I certainly fucking don't!

This is some great music, thanks a LOT!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis mourning its windy and I am listening to Popul Vuhs timeless In The Gardens of Pharao then I came across your excellent post. Read the descriptive description and find this would make a nice accompaniment for the remainder of the morning. Thanks again for sharing all the interesting music even if I dont like some of it that just shows that you dont pigeonhole your tastes!
ReplyDeleteI think this and the popul Voh record mixed together would make for a record better than the either?
ReplyDeleteYeah, i often don't like some of it ,yself,leading to criticism by persons unnamed as in 'If I don't like it why do i post it'kinda stuff.Life aint no smooth ride fella.
Variety the spice of life. Same goes for music tho I will go to the grace disliking with contempt rap and 99.9% of country music!! And Ill be ok!
ReplyDeleteThe 'mirror image' is too 'sooper'! Got to give this a listen. Many thanks.
