I can definitely hear winehouse et al singing them. Bring in the string section hafway through. It writes itself! Shame byrne had to be so militant about the terms.
I'm friends with Dori Hadar, the DJ & record collector who found Mike's albums at the flea market. It's an amazing story and it's been great to see Mike get the attention his art deserves, all the way to inclusion in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian.
Hmmm re-reading that it sounds kind of prosaic and press-releasey. here's what I really want to say: Dori is a great guy, the perfect person to find these records. Mike's artwork has reached such a wide audience only because Dori and Mike were able to trust each other, which was not a guaranteed outcome given the circumstances of their meeting.
