REJOICE dear reader!
Lightbulb Detective Agency has released its’ second collection of musical experiments! Distributed in the Compact Disc format, this compilation of bold musical statements has been cleverly titled “A Useful Potato”. Finally the legendary pieces The final 24 hours of Dr. Leon Brophy and Bait and Switch will see the light of day. Surely these recordings will cause you to ask the question “what the heck were these guys thinking?”
Well, you are in luck! We will tell you exactly what we were thinking!
From the Liner notes of A Useful Potato:
“The music for The final 24 hours of Dr. Leon Brophy was written over the course of several recording sessions. The total length of time spent in these sessions was 24 hours. No musical ideas were discussed or created outside of these sessions.
The entirety of bait and switch was recorded in one day at the Listen Laboratory in Fayetteville AR by Dwight Chalmers. All of the music was improvised with no prior discussion or preparation except for tempo and general texture. The recording was conducted in three sections that were later edited together to make one continuous piece. One section contains overlapping improvisations, where the musicians where overdubbing on a previous performance.”
There, that was easy right? Think of how smug you’ll feel going out into the world knowing that you “get it” and that everyone else doesn’t! You can hold your head high because you’ve got the “inside scoop” on what will be regarded as a musical milestone by future generations!
