Title: New VDP album (Songs Cycled) Streams At Guardian Website
Post by: The Heartical Don on May 01, 2013, 08:51:55 AM
...to make it clear: it's not Song Cycle of 1968, but his collection of singles made over the past couple of years.

I (in Holland) can make it work; don't know how that is in other countries.

4If Van Dyke Parks were given his own Friday Night TV Show where he was host, guest, musician, raconteur, bon viveur, agitator, comedian, actor, it still wouldnt be enough for me. This man IS king.

Hear, hear!

Wonder if that's the erstwhile Cocteau Twin who wrote that.

Yes, I wondered too! Could be a fan of his, of course.

Simon Raymonde owns/runs the Bella Union label, so it's a pretty fair bet he's a fan... :)

Hehe... that explains everything. Well, he's entitled to blow his own, and VDP's trumpet (no innuendo intended...).
