Copendium Is A Big Book And Discovering Pärson Sound

 

"Copendium" the 700-page treatise on music by Julian Cope is a very large book, physically as well as the number of pages, and the two-column format seems to make it slower to read, but it is still rather excellent.

The book itself is printed on very thick paper so it is a fairly hefty tome.

After Nico's "The Marble Index" chapter I feel that record needs to be in my collection. The latest one that I feel I may have to get is by a Scandinavian Band called Pärson Sound

The music is India (Slight Return)  by Pärson Sound

The Marble Index In The Copendium

"Copendium" the 700-page treatise on music by Julian Cope is rather excellent. It has an odd newspaper-like format with two columns on every page. I have now come across the first artist I am familiar with, Nico and her album "The Marble Index".

I have now come across the first artist I am familiar with, Nico and her album "The Marble Index". 

What I did not realise was that the title is taken from a Wordsworth poem about Sir Isaac Newton, "The Prelude, or Growth of a Poet's Mind".

Of moon or favouring stars, I could behold

The antechapel where the statue stood

Of Newton with his prism and silent face,

The Marble Index of a mind for ever

Voyaging through strange seas of Thought, alone. 

The full poem is here

Sinking Into The Copendium

 

I now took a 450-degree turn through four dimensions and started on "Copendium" a 700-page treatise on music by Julian Cope. It has an odd newspaper-like format with two columns on every page. Thirty-odd pages in it has covered Lord Buckley, Blue Cheer, Kim Fowley and someone I've never heard of called Henry Flynt.

While I have a very long way to go I am very impressed so far.

The book itself seems to be printed on very thick paper so it is a fairly hefty tome.

Copendium

"Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, and is a perfect indictment of how bad our patriarchal society is, even today, but while the book seemed to be heading for a bad area, it turned and was very positive in the end.

Carol vs The Patriarchy

 "The Roaches Have No King" by Daniel Evans Weiss is complete, and was interesting. Now my attention is fully with "Carol" by Patricia Highsmith, a recommendation from my work LGBT+ book club, and is a perfect indictment of how bad our patriarchal society is.
