Neil Campbell ‎– "Face Of Scurf" (Union Pole ‎– UP41) 1994

Ahhhhh!.....'Scurf'.
This brings back memories of my mother going through my hair, removing insects with the dreaded "Scurf Comb"! Which she dragged over my scalp removing both dead insects (nits or Head lice), and a fair bit of skin, both of the flakey variety ,i.e. actual 'Scurf' and the normal stuff, in one go.
Another name for 'Scurf' is actually 'Dandruff'.Never quite understood what it was until later in my tenure.
As Neil Campbell and I are approximatly the same age, i'm sure he too came face to face with the 'Scurf Comb' A traumatic experience akin to slow torture, and undoubtedly a major influence on Neils work.....of which there are masses of.
Campbell has been in many groups too numerous to list here,as well as a myriad of duo's, and has been a solo sound experimenter since the late eighties at least.
He's most known as a part of uk drone miesters Vibracathedral Orchestra,but he rarely sticks to one style for long.Importantly there's always the suggestion of humour in his work,where commonly one only finds pretention
A non-musician worthy of the honour of life membership in the 'Other' category on iTunes'.
