now this guy is a dude dub poet. sadly, don't seem to be so much about him in the ether, so was wondering if anyone out there had ever stumbled on a site with some of his lyrics / poems (esp 'dread beat and blood', his fabulous first album)
i want to put them to a work poetry reading group - we decided to look at lyrics as poems and i want to continue a theme i've been at in this group with patois, or at least having language read as it is sounded, to give a sense of speaking by the character.
lkj is full of this! and he is a wondrous poet, but i can't remember all of his stuff, and the vinyl copy of db&b i had seems to have eluded my collection somewhere over the last ten or twelve years (with xtc's 'english settlement', dammit!)
anyway, others have opinions and experience of this great artist? i could cross-post this in 'creation' to get poets talking about it, but would that be useful? |
