CURLY'S AIRSHIPS
LATEST NEWS
A two-hour piece of words and music written by JUDGE SMITH which tells the true and extraordinary story of the 1924 Imperial Airship Scheme, a grandiose plan to link the colonies of the British Empire with a fleet of Zeppelins; a dream which ended with the destruction of the world's biggest airship, the giant dirigible R101, on its maiden voyage to India in 1930.
This project, which I worked on for over two years on and off, is now complete and available from curlysairships.com. It is one of the most remarkable pieces of music I have ever had the pleasure of being involved with.
Judge has a new CD available called "The FULL ENGLISH". I play mainly acoustic guitar, with a little bit of electric and bass. Another classic from one of the UK's cleverest sonwriters. Watch out for gigs later this year.
Judge also has a new website: www.judge-smith.com
G.P.HALL
G.P.Hall is a remarkable guitarist who I met several years ago when I saw him play at the Queen Elizabeth Hall. I did an interview with him for the sadly missed Strangled. He is still making remarkable records and his rare live performances are not to be missed. www.gphall.co.uk
GP has a new CD coming out on Bronze Records in December. I play guitar on one track.
THE NEW MASTER OF GO
This will be my next instrumental piece. Based on the beautiful Japanese boardgame which I studied many years ago. The music will be guitar based. I have written a film treatment based on the game of GO which I hope to develop this year.(2006)
2nd part of the Japanese Trilogy.

Wabi-Sabi is a Japanese philosophical concept closely related to but not exclusive to the Japanese Tea Ceremony (Chanoyu).

ROADBREAKERS LIVE
During the anti-M11 campaign The Roadbreakers were formed to do a couple of fundraising gigs. We had a lot of fun doing blues covers with titles that had something to do with roads or transport. One of those gigs was recorded by Mr John Pridige and is now available through his own Power Zone record label. John tells me that only 500 have been pressed!

I have recently had the pleasure of working with David "Tonewall" Jackson at Meldreth Manor College. It's a residential school for children and young adults with severe physical and learning difficulties. David uses an amazing interactive sound environment called SOUNDBEAM that gets the students to participate in music making even though they might have almost no movement in their limbs. It was a wonderful day. Click here for David's website.
