Description

So you ever have one of those little doodley things that you had no intent of leaving as is, but end up doing so anyway?

This is one of those things I intended to do a revision of Mark Stewart, who is an icon of the early 80s UK post-punk scene. A founder of the deceptively named Pop Group (they were anything but) his strident talk-sermon delivery of liberal/anarchist jingles was backed by a pummelling wall of punk-jazz-dub noise.

After that, he did a lot of work with Adrian Sherwood and his On-U Sound posse (with the Maffia, New Age Steppers, and various solo releases) which in turn was very influential on the Bristol music scene.

There is a documentary coming out on Stewart this year (featuring interview footage with guys like Nick Cave, Daniel Miller of Mute records, and Sherwood): [link]

Anyway, this is something I just liked as a clean-up and put on a postcard kind of thing. We should all be ok with leaving unfinished finished things finished.
