Henry Cow
Stockholm & Goteborg (2lp)
Originally released on CD as part of the 40th anniversary 'Henry Cow Box' and reissued here for the first time on vinyl,
these high quality Swedish Radio live recordings, made in 1977, include previously unreleased material including Tim
Hodgkinson's 'Erk Gah,' a long, epic, large scale composition considered as one of Cow peaks, a breathtaking rendition
of Phil Ochs' 'No More Songs' - in fact the only real song ever played by Henry Cow - and Fred Frith's 'The March,' plus
the legendary 'Ottawa Song' and other untitled free improvised pieces. Over an hour of outstanding experimental rock
music performed by the Henry Cow original lineup: Dagmar Krause - vocals, Fred Frith - guitar, violin, xylophone,
Lindsay Cooper - bassoon, flute, Tim Hodgkinson - organ, sax, John Greaves or Georgie Born - bass, cello, and Chris
Cutler - drums. Henry Cow's natural habitat was the stage and the real-time pressure of public performance, because it
was there that the music could live, breathe and evolve (C. Cutler). All music taken from the original radio tapes and
remastered by Bob Drake. The album contains printed inner sleeves with full notes by Frith, Cutler and Hodgkinson, and
photos.
