To the World, from Bazzer

Can be found here or you can read it here. I was particularly amused by assignment of certain animals to the future Andrews/Barker/Partridge venture: The project is of the order of mating a horse, a badger, and a lizard so, you know, monstrous births may result.

My guess is Andy Partridge is the horse, simply because of his Uffington affiliation, Martyn Barker is the badger, and Barry is, of course, the lizard. There's no denying he's always had a connection to anything reptilian.

Andrews here. Welcome to the new site. I'll be pontificating here on a regular basis - so get used to it. The Cormorant album is done and out, but its eggs are still in the pipeline (avian gynaecologists need not write to me about that - or on 2nd thoughts, do - I should know this shit). That's right, we've got some lovely Cormorant eggs reproduced in resin and - miracolo! - a usb plug sticking unnaturally out of the end delivers the new album, 4 extra tunes, and an interview (with me) to your computer. It comes in a simply darling little cardboard box with straw and will have its own collector's number limited edition malarky plus a hand-craftd individual card depicting 1 of:

50 Ways of Looking at a Cormorant (with apologies to Wallace Stevens. These cards are the latest VILE HOMUNCULUS Quality Product. Well, it's a must-have in the stocking of any Real Cormorant Lover, wouldn't you say? Dam' straight. Get onto Malicious Damage Records. They'll sort you out.

Am doing a birra playing with that Andy Partridge bloke again next week. The idea is - ahem - free form improvisation. Recorded As It Happens. Don't look like that - it might be good. Martyn Barker is drumming. The project is of the order of mating a horse, a badger, and a lizard so, you know, monstrous births may result. Still, in the phrase of the Great Vonnegut, they may be Hopeful Monsters.
