how has horsemouth been recovering from the gig?
well he went over to howard's for a debrief. it was carnival time and the people were on the move. (looking good people. looking good.)
at howard's they mostly sat in the back garden and talked. howard fed him (fakemeat sausages, fried egg, toast, baked beans, humous, avocado, salad, finely chopped red onions), it was most tasty. it was exactly what horsemouth needed - though the orange juice, paracetamol, coffee and toast he had had in the morning were most useful also.
howard has the don and moki cherry book organic music societies. (hey did you realise mu's 1 and 2 were recorded on august 22nd 1969?). this is almost a bill laswellian album title. but with laswell it would be a hollow title (nagual sacred site, ritual beating system etc.). where as don cherry has a philosophy of music making.
"the organic music society period is the beating heart of don cherry’s oeuvre, in that the music recorded does not belong to him, but was communally created – the ecstatic, multisensory, and communal manifestation of his mantra 'this is not my music'. the album organic music society is just one artefact from this crucial period." - jennifer lucy allan, the quietus.
horsemouth should have borrowed it as proposed.
today horsemouth returns to the wilds.
he is packing his wheelie bin (is he doing it right?). are these the right books (because it is almost entirely books) to take?
he would have hung around longer in town (there's fun to be had and people to see no doubt) but events (as they say). once again he has failed to do all he could do (but ah well).
it's the morning. horsemouth has his coffee.
