MIJ: Yodeling Astrologer (CD)
MIJ: Yodeling Astrologer
ESP-Disk ESP-1098
When MIJ, aka Jim Holmberg was found by ESP, yodeling by the fountain in Washington Square Park, on a hot, summer Sunday afternoon, he explained that an auto accident had fractured his skull and impaired his hearing. But it had also altered his perceptions and enabled him to do things that he did not understand, but which worked musically. The next day ESP sent him into the studio. With Onno Scholtze's help, Mij explored the possibilities of multiple reverb to provide a series of echoes for his yodeling. When the project was completed, both participants continued to reverberate. They may be reverberating still.
Track Listing:
1. Two Stars
2. Grok (Martian Love Call)
3. Romeo and Juliet
4. Little Boy
5. Lookin' Out Today
6. Door Keys
7. Planet of a Flower
8. Never be Free
9. Look Into the (K)Night
