I got this off Gigwise and it is pure gold. You know I really liked that Adrian Thaws album this year but you know what it’s like, there is just too much going and you’ve only got a week to stick it before there is a whole buncha new albums coming out and except for “My Palestine Girl” and “Sun Down” nothing stuck and I got sick of typing Tirzah because I had to keep checking the name so I moved on.
But this interview Gigwise gound is just the best: “I wouldn’t work with Damon Albarn again. We were walking through Leeds and we were in this fucked up area and I looked around and I said, ’These kids got nothing’, and he said to me, ’They’ve got us’… and I just thought, ’These kids are going in and out of jail, they ain’t go no money, how are we, especially you … maybe you could say that about me, but I haven’t got that arrogance to say, ‘These kids they’ve got nothing, they’re out hustling, but they got me’ – I wouldn’t be that arrogant.”
This is a brilliant quote, he sounds both humble and arrogant at the same time!!!
Oh and he threw away his prince album after he went to get a drink at a club and they wouldn’t let him pass because Prince was dancing!!! This man lives the life we wish we did… here you go enjoy!!!
