Review: CLOCKDUST by RUSTIN MAN - Paul Webb - Former Talk Talk Bassist +...

   

When Music helps us to overcome the bad and the sadness... My views about this album which was released just at the beginning of the lockdown. I've been waiting way too long to do this video. I hope this will distract you during a few minutes from the bad news.

Souvenir of a Live w/ RICHARD ROSE, Grave Flowers Bongo Band & CfM

     

Here is my new video about a Live Show which happened on December 13, 2019 at Permanent Records Roadhouse in Los Angeles, California. Gravy Flowers Bongo Band, Richard Rose (the band) and Cfm were playing there. 

I am telling you here the story of my personal experience when I was there. We were many experiencing the same show, but I am absolutely sure that not two persons there perceived the show by the same way.
I would say that as a French woman living in Los Angeles, overly sensitive and with a tendency to run away from unpleasant situations, this is how I perceived my evening there. I loved the music but I actually could really appreciate it the most when I re-listened to it at home while editing. What I saw that night was sometimes hiding what I heard. Once at home, I could only focus on the sound and it was awesome! And Gabe of Gravy Flowers Bongo Band + of other bands has so many talents! I didn't know that I had so talented neighbors around me...

MARK HOLLIS & Talk Talk: The DOORS Influence, A Very Personal View

   

I invited my old buddy Jim Morrison on my new video.

The creating process. I've been searching for the link between Fine Art and Music during a very long time. Now, I am searching for the links between my two main sources of inspiration. 

Mark Hollis and Jim Morrison are so different as persons, that it is hard to believe that they could meet somewhere in Music. Jim Morrison, in his lyrics, described the visions he may have had, as a Shaman, during his psychedelic trances, going back to the most primitive and raw aspect of Humanity.

Mark Hollis is a giver and has offered us a divine Love through his Music. I receive it loud and clear.

Such a difference between the both! 

But still, both are, were searching for a piece of Truth, for a form of sincerity.

They have in common to have not sold themselves, to be very picky about their creative choices, both are, were, extremely talented, both said not to have an extended knowledge in Music when they started their career. 

Both disappeared abruptly: one died near my home in Paris, and was buried a few streets further, the other one retired without a warning or almost, and came haunting my dreams with his Music. 

Both are fascinating characters! 

But Jim committed a kind of suicide while Mark decided to save his life. 

Really not the same approach!

Jim Morrison disappeared way before I could even honor his work, I was still a child when he died. That is probably why I don't want to miss any chance to honor Mark's career, artists should be really appreciated and admired while they are still alive.

I am grateful to admire someone who is somehow my age, and still well alive.

Wish I can learn the most from him.

Mark Hollis JOHN COPE Or How To Make Love to Music, The Doors, Talk Talk

       

A place where Talk Talk and The Doors meet.

How could I avoid
such a song where the two artists who inspired me the most for my
paintings, and who have been somehow mentors to me, find a common point
in the Blues and Jazz creation? I fell in Love with this song the first
time I listened to it. No surprise, John Cope reminds me the Music,
which made me , during my childhood, a kind of artist.
I am still
creating today because many years ago, I heard an organ, and guitars,
and percussion, and voices which overwhelmed me. I’ve been lost in the
meantime. But now, it is more than time for me to accomplish what I was
meant for, by hoping  I will have the time...

Painting The Mark Hollis & Talk Talk Music, a Holy Moment, Blocks & More

I am telling you here my little story to help you overcome your creative blocks.

I am not saying that after this video, all your problems will have disappeared, just it will make you think a little, and maybe be a little more aware about the signs and miracles around you.

Sometimes, the bad moments are necessary to live one holy moment in our life...
