Hello Lomax 03:08

about

Cage Mates - echoes and ghosts from my rib cage.

Few notes about what you hear in "Calabria, Symphonic Poem" and in "Hello Lomax"

1) - Excerpts from Tv ad "Calabria Terra Mia" G.Muccino

- Excerpts from speech of June 2020 of ex president of Calabria regional counsel, DomenicoTallini
in which he states, in a precarious italian language that (sic) "fascism is not racist..it's a gross idea that of thinking
this way.. fascism brought culture in Africa"

- Tv recording of President of Region Calabria Antonino Spirlì in which he states that the equivalent
italian words of "Nigger" and "Faggot" are not "bad words but the only right ones to name these people"
And that he will use them as long as he lives, followed by a praise of the rosary which he promptly
gets out of his pocket, displaying to everyone, saying "this, this is an instrument, an instrument.. use it..nuns gave it to me.. think about that".

- Speech of ex major of Riace, Mimmo Lucano.
If you haven't heard about it, google Riace and its beautiful story of integration

- Blind Willie Johnson -
excerpt from "Dark was the night, Cold was the ground"
(BWJ was also the subject of Bear Bile cover, AI-translated into a blue bear form)

- Rain recorded at Sardas Man Studios, Fiumefreddo Bruzio,
Sea recorded in Riace - Italy

10) - Excerpts from "Traditional Music & Songs of Italy" Alan Lomax

-------------------

except for "Stromboli" Fender Telecaster

All instruments are played by Denis Cassiere
