| Peter Hammill portrayed on the cover of his 1982 album Enter K.Type, Virgin, Naive, Foundry, Enigma, Fie!Van der Graaf Generator.Most noted for his vocal abilities, his main instruments are guitar and piano.He has been married to his wife Hilary since 1978 and they have 3 children.He attended Beaumont College, Old Windsor, and Manchester University, where he studied Liberal Studies in Science.In general, however, solo Hammill is concerned with more personal matters, while the band's songs deal with broader themes.His earlier work was largely existential in nature and many of his solo album lyrics are literary, poetic and amongst the most sensitive and intelligent and complex expressions of angst and a search for meaning in the history of music.It appears to be very difficult to categorize his music.In a 1977 radio interview, John Lydon of the Sex Pistols played two tracks from the album and expressed his admiration for Hammill in glowing terms: "Peter Hammill's great.If you listen to his solo albums, I'm damn sure Bowie copied a lot out of that geezer.The credit he deserves, has just not been given to him.Hammill's solo career resumed in earnest after the final demise of Van der Graaf Generator in 1978, and has continued to the present day.Many different styles of music appear in his work, among them avant garde electronic experiments (Loops and Reels; Unsung; Spur of the Moment), opera (The Fall of the House of Usher); solo keyboard accompaniment (And Close As This); solo guitar accompaniment (Clutch); and band recordings (Enter K).Despite the complexity of his work, Hammill's output is prolific, typically with new albums once or twice a year.His catalogue varies between artful complexity in the late 1960s and early 1970s; raw, energetic new wave in the late 1970s and early 1980s; mature, expansive songform in the late 1980s and early 1990s; and slow, melancholic balladry in the late 1990s and 2000s.There are numerous exceptions to all of these phases, illustrating the difficulty of categorising Hammill's work.Hammill's early records, like the VdGG albums, were released on Charisma Records.Type, a label run by Hammill and his manager Gail Colson.In 1992 he formed his own label, Fie!Hammill survived a heart attack in December 2003.He was awarded the prestigious Italian Tenco Prize for songwriting at the end of 2004.In 2005, Hammill reformed Van der Graaf Generator.Nov 2006 played a series of well received concerts.The last of the Charisma remasters was released in September 2007.Solo concerts will continue simultaneously.Lyrics

Autographed Killers...Killers, Angels, Refugees, Peter Hammill's first book published in 1974, contains lyrics for all the songs up to "Silent Corner", poems, drawings and other interesting stuff.Richard could be quite funny and sent me this Christmas card many moon's ago that I came across recently.VdGG lyrics to suit any occasion.We knew all the songs by heart then, which would be difficult now with 40 albums to learn, and annoyed everybody with never ending renditions.During 1973 the band, without Peter Hammill, but including Nic Potter, released an instrumental album called The Long Hello.The album wasn't released in the UK until 1976.Peter Hammill answered some questions from a Melody Maker reader in the March 27th 1976 edition which included comments about The Long Hello.Peter Hammill, Dave Jackson, Hugh Banton and Guy Evans.See Geoff Barton's interview of May '75.See also Antony Thorncroft's review in the Financial Times.Not quite as I remember it!It just shows how subjective reviews are."There is a musical barrier which keeps out the trivial and the commercial, but also most of the threads that make for a worthwhile musical experience".Well, it was a worthwhile musical experience for me!The front cover sported an unusual picture, entitled "Band of Millions of Years", which was used to publicise the Godbluff tour and appeared on a compilation album cover.University of East Anglia concert

Avg: 3.Van de Graaff Generator is sometimes included in that number.While I never acquired anything by this group, I had been
drawn to several solo songs by its leader Peter Hammill.Only when I bought the
album on the basis of several other interesting cuts did I rediscover the song with glee.Hammill can be harsh, and
doesn't so much sing as shout.Only being familiar with a small proportion of this man's catalogue, I cannot say how this stacks up, except that it has a
good number of potent moments and a denseness of sound that stands repeated listenings.Not a masterpiece, but certainly no
sitting target for critics either.Since bailing out of his Liberal Studies in Science course at Manchester University in
1968, Peter Hammill has pursued an idiosyncratic career as songwriter, singer and
musician.Their
complex music, as often brutal as it was lyrical, fitted somewhat uneasily into the once
and then niche of Progressive Rock.By the time the group finally folded Peter had already recorded seven solo albums,
covering many lyrical and musical bases in the process.The Silent Corner could well have been
the work of three entirely different artists: it is Hammill's voice, both artistic and
physical, which unifies them.Japanese paper sleeve editions of these classic Peter Hammill titles!Real Time: Royal Festival Hall (Japanese

definitions of singularity exist and though several of them have some bearing on and
resonance in this work the principle ones with which Peter identifies here are the

remastered with Hammill's involvement.Valentine's gift for his or her own significant other might well regret it.And not
only because the sentiments and emotions expressed are often a long way from love
itself.It's hard not to be impressed by the emotion in
Hammill's voice on the songs, 'Other Old Cliches' and 'Besides the One You Love' ...Skin is nonetheless Peter Hammill continuing to declare his own
direction minute by minute, rather than plotting overarching career goals.There is
more of a dependence on MIDI on this album, and a lot of obvious keyboard support, but the
core human players come through loud an dclear, expecially Guy Evans on drums and David
Jackson on saxes.After all, the last time they had done so had been twenty nine years
previously.Expectations and stakes were high.Collective breath was held as they
advanced on stage.Would it be worth risking the
reputation of the past with these present efforts?With suprises as well as old
favourities, new songs as well as recovered classics, the event was, in the end, a triumph
for critics and public alike.This double CD contains every note from first to last
in real time as a true document of a unique occasion.This is very exciting stuff indeed.The main theme here is the
long dive down into not being who we were....Peter sings and plays all instruments alone.Experimentation and change have always been important to

future efforts.David Lord and his wonderful orchestral
arrangements are well to the fore.This is one of my most accessible and creatively succesful
albums of recent years and I am really pleased that it's going to be out there once
more.The artwork has also been spruced up.The previous
recording (Enter K) was remastered last year and it's high time that this one, too, had
some sonic afterburner applied to its tracks.The recordings were made in the manner already set down with
'Enter k': half the tracks were initiated in my home studio, to be completed at Crescent
Studios.DVD contains the full Judge Smith concert staged in

guitarist Robert Fripp.Includes five bonus tracks.After a four year absence (in which Peter Hammill released a number of solo
albums) Van der Graaf Generator reformed in 1975 to record this masterpiece.Godbluff captures the band at their peak with a mature lyrical contribution from Hammill

European pressings.CD, narrative work 'Curly's Airships' of 2000.His first album since the release of this epic 'songstory', Judge's new CD is a return to
a more traditional format.Accordion, guitar, piano, organ, bass and drums, in
various combinations, give the album an 'unplugged' feel, and showcase a collection of
Judge's songs that are as original, unusual, and downright quirky, as one would expect
from this unconventional and surprising artist.Despite Judge's eclectic approach to
songwriting, THE FULL ENGLISH sounds surprisingly coherent and consistent, due mainly to
his choice of musicians.THE FULL ENGLISH an excellent
introduction to this refreshingly unconventional, and very 'English', talent.This is the second edition of the epic concert of David Jackson in Guastalla, Italy, on
Nov 23, 2002.Roms will play PAL DVD's.Otherwise you'll need an all code DVD player to view on your television.Most fans thought it would never happen.But Guy Evans, David
Jackson, Hugh Banton and Peter Hammill have reunited as Van der Graaf Generator.This is not a nostalgic reunion to relive past glories, but a coming together of new
experiences and fresh perspectives for the creation of new music as well as new live
performances, the rebirth of a phoenix!EMI who have resurrected the Charisma label for
the occasion.These have always been a feature of Van der Graaf playing and are quite whacky....The Goldberg Variations (J.As you will know, Hugh was the organist in Van der Graaf
Generator.The Goldberg Variations was originally written for double manual harpsichord but
lends itself equally well to church organ.Indeed, the transfer to this instrument
enhances the clarity of many of the lines.The contrapuntal detail is further
highlighted by the precise nature of the digital organ.For what it's worth I give my highest commendation to this CD and am
absolutely delighted to include it in the Fie!The music is continuous for
the whole hour.While coming from such an extremely specific time frame the music itself
has a timeless quality.Modern music with a (serious) smile on the face.When the two
performances were put in synch together it was immediately obvious that something quite
different had occurred.CD: a most particular hour embedded in music.The
music on the CD is continuous, of course.It has a certain smile, a certain sense of
playfulness about it; but it is also quite serious.The Union Chapel Concert ....Guy Evans was invited to do whatever he wanted for a concert at Union
Chapel.He decided to do a duet performance with Peter Hammill.And in the process the two
of them invited a number of their favorite musicians to join them.As you'll know,
there's always some difference in attitude, approach and style as I've gone from one to
the next.This time I've restricted myself to writing and playing exclusively on
acoustic guitar.It was also a project of
interesting and challenging discipline.Now newly remastered by Peter Hammill and including the bonus track, 'Seven Wonders.Enter K is very much a hybrid set of recordings which makes up a pair with
Patience.The masters were evidently originally intended for vinyl, still the only game in
town at that time.This is a brilliant new album by Peter Hammill.It is an extremely
engaging and very personal statement, almost as if he were whispering a message to you.Stuart Gordon (violin)
and David Jackson (saxes and flutes).It followed on from the 'calm' CD, Fireships and was
flagged at the time as being number one in the A Loud series.Planet Coventry' and 'Primo on the Parapet.Another song, 'The Noise'
itself, clearly celebrates the joy of making a racket on stage.With the forthcoming
prospect of the Van der Graaf Generator reunion it remains to be seen exactly how much of
a noise PH is still prepared to make.This is Peter Hammill's latest album, a collection of songs recorded
between January 1999 and February 2000.An album of strong passions, The Roaring Forties shows Peter Hammill at
his strongest.None of this stuff is exactly
comfortable: for the most part it is music from beneath the surface and behind the light.An alternate world of Sonix.Unsung' contains experimental instrumental work of an unpredictable and
uncategorisable nature.As the title implies, the absence of lyrics means that not even any clues are
offered.This is
effectively the third in an originally unconscious series initiated with 'Loops and Reels'
and continued with 'Sonix.It also bears relation to the work I did with Guy Evans
on 'Spur of the Moment' and Roger Eno on 'The Appointed Hour.They are not trying to fit
into any given genre, nor trying to jam genres togethr in (cold) fusion.For me, these pieces collectively
present an alternative aural landscape.This' is the fortieth album for which Peter Hammill has been
responsible...It is released on the eve of his fiftieth birthday,
after thirty years of music making.The lead voice is, as always, insistently to the fore, with the
passing of time and rites of passage remaining the central lyrical concerns.What is clear is that his
appetite for the fray remains undiminished.Since the Kids' offer proof that This has not
stopped yet....Performances are all from '92, around Europe.This
wonderful collection features over two hours of music and a 12 page booklet full of
commentary from PH.I'm very fond and which I believe has an extremely wide sonic palette.Spur of the Moment was the first collaborative venture by Peter Hammill
and Guy Evans since their days as members of Van der Graaf Generator.The music is
instrumental and entirely improvised.Although these pieces are incapable of being placed
in any normal musical classification, they draw on the spirits, sounds and styles of all.Peter Hammill has been a writer, singer and performer for the last thirty
years.The rhythm section of Guy Evans (drums) and Nic Potter
(bass) had, of course, played with Peter in Van der Graaf Generator.It should not be
forgotten, however, that they were also members of Glenn Fernando Campbell's
Misunderstood.Peter had met him while both were performing with the Stranglers while Hugh
Cornwell was in jail.This release presents, on CD 1, the original 'The Margin,' as recorded
live in the UK in '83, in a remastered form.The K Group could and did play in funny time
signatures and at times with great sensitivity.Gentlemen, the bar is open.Curly's Airships is a work of words and music on a grand scale.Many will recognize Judge Smith as one of the
earliest members of Van der Graaf Generator and also the librettist for the opera, Fall of
the House of Usher, with music composed and performed by Peter Hammill.The album also features notable guest appearances from
Peter Hammill, David Jackson, Arthur Brown, Pete Brown, Paul Roberts and many more.This

while ((s.Van Der Graaf Generator routinely challenged listeners and confounded critics with their uncompromising musical aesthetic.Peter Hammill, the band evolved out of the musically fluid British underground scene, in which rock freely mingled with folk, jazz, classical, electronic, and other styles.They released nine albums before disbanding in 1978.So it was a question of finding something that had that power, but that was more in tune with the people we actually were.It really goes back to what our attitude was in the first place.So we were ultimately able to look back and say that we had made a very decent job of doing things for what we regarded as the right reasons.And the fact that none of us had traded on the name afterwards, or made any kind of an effort to sell out, meant that there was something to preserve.Does that suggest that creativity exists outside of time?One has to make a leap of faith and trust in the muse, while simultaneously not assuming that it is always going to be there.Having said that, it was surprising to all of us when we got into the room and started working.The Van Der Graaf sound was there immediately.How do you experience improvisation while it is occurring?Tribute to Jack Johnson, and that was partly because it was a seminal record for us even the first time around.Caravansarai was also very important.But there is something we could recognize that paralleled what we were doing in the past and the present.Briefly describe your songwriting process.In my view, the process of songwriting is largely a matter of being awake, sticking your hand in the air, and grabbing whatever is passing.But that is the process, rather than starting with clay and making bricks.Guitar Player is a trademark of New Bay Media, LLC.It is highly unlikely that an official one would be created by the man himself so this is the next best thing.Twin it with the VDGG space and feel free to share stories, opinons and anything else you might think of..."Are you sure you want to delete this comment?"FRIPP)PAT MASTELOTTO (KING CRIMSON, KTU, TU, TUNER..."Campagne", "Kriegspiel" and "Le tombereau du bourreau" (the executioner's tipcart).Downloading is free, as usual, to let you listen us inside your favorite auditorium !Someone get rid of the lady's butt and the other assorted spam.ILL TALK TO YOU LATER TIME FOR A FRIDAY SHOPPING SPREE LOL!Paperlate Radio will air another VDGG special on Sunday, May 20, from 20.The show will be repeated on Thursday May 24, same time.The webstream can be found on www.The new album From Discard to Derivation
