My Life In The Mosh Of Ghosts - Gig 45. Air - The Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, London. 17th May 1981.

Free-Jazz newbie Roger travels down to London from Sheffield with three serious Jazz buffs. Their destination, the Lyric Theatre in West London to witness a rare UK gig by Chicago improvised-music titans Air. Lots of stuff about being under the enthusiastic tutelage of one of my key musical mentors Charlie Collins.The trip also takes in a studio visit to hang out with US new-wave sprites The Bongos.Intro and outro music: Simon Elliott-Kemp.Artwork: Rionagh.Sound FX courtesy of Freesound...

Every gig I have ever seen. Forty-odd years of thud, sweat and beers. Starting in 1977 and currently covering 1984, if you are a fan of Sheffield music from bands like Cabaret Voltaire and The Human League. Or you like Industrial and Post-Punk music in general, there will be something here for you to check out. I'm Roger Quail, I grew up in Sheffield and played drums with Clock DVA and The Box in this era.
