Nik Turner interview, Record Collector magazine 2015-10-08 : The Nik of Time https://recordcollectormag.com/articles/nik-time #NikTurner #LemmyKilminster #BarneyBubbles #RobertCalvert #MichaelMoorcock

While not a Skargill moment by any means, I'm currently reminded of my feelings about the 84 UK miners' strike. I fully and unequivocally supported the National #Union of Mineworkers, while simultaneously being completely opposed to mining & mining companies. Not comparing #Bandcamp to mining of course, just highlighting the cognitive dissonance involved in supporting grassroots workers while opposing those for whom they work. (Also: see the excellent #RobertCalvert album FREQ).

Have a look at The Last Star Fighter by #RobertCalvert. "Much more obscure are the albums he recorded in the 80s before his 1988 death. Hype (1981), Freq (1984), Test-Tube Conceived (1985), and The Cellar Tapes (demo recordings first released in 1986) came out to little fanfare in their time and have only intermittently been available since. This collection features 19 tracks from those four albums remixed by a wide range of artists..." #ExposeOnline #SpaceRock #review http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/robert-calvert-the-last-star-fighter-2.html

And then after leaving that band again, #RobertCalvert did a concept album about the Miner's Strike.
