“Objects proliferate as never before”
When I met up with Andy recently, conversation turned, as it will do, to the unclassifiable Peter Blegvad.
Andy told me about Blegvadian radio cartoons while I recalled seeing that he’s got a new album out with Andy Partridge (ex-XTC); you know, your average Greek myth transposed into Anglo-American avant-garde folk-pop-jazz-poetry kind of album. Nothing unusual.
Finding it, however, has proved to be an adventure. Finding anything Blegvadian is a peculiar journey into an artistic wonderland.
If this were not enough, he is also one of the very tallest men you will ever encounter. Doubtless this has influenced his output, but I doubt that even playing on the numinosity proximity machine will reveal how.
