I'm looking for lasting relations with green-fly, spider, or maggot

Bill Fay. Beautiful. This!, this! and this! ...Everything.
I could never say enough about this man's music. Thank you, Mr. Fay.











Garden Song and Tiny from the compilation From The Bottom of an Old Grandfather Clock (a collection of outtakes and demos 1966-1970) (now, sadly, out of print), Wooden Hill, 2004. (If any of the invloved parties would like me to remove the audio, please let me know.)

  2. I love Bill Fay too! "Brighton Beach" is a fave from the demos. Another Wooden Hill cd classic is Oliver's Standing Stone.

  5. Oliver is superb indeed, but more in a Captain Beefheart vein. If you like Bill Fay, you maight want to check out Michael Chapman too. See also http://uzine.posterous.com/tag/faybill + http://uzine.posterous.com/tag/chapmanmichael ;-) And http://www.cherryred.co.uk/esoteric/artists/billfay.php
