LYDEN AF ET SVUNDENT EUROPA

MAGASIN
NOVEMBER 2011
GEIGER (ISSN 1600-8871)

I forbindelse med 30-års jubilæet for den skotske sanger, digter og filminstruktør Richard Jobsons spoken word-album The Ballad of Etiquette skrev Martin Hall et omfattende essay om manden og hans kunst til det danske connaisseurmagasin Geiger (#21).

Gennem 80’erne indspillede Jobson en række spoken word-plader for det legendariske belgiske selskab Les Disques du Crépuscule, hvorpå han bl.a. arbejdede med flere fortællinger skrevet af den franske forfatterinde Marguerite Duras (1914–1996). Det er især dette litterære aspekt ved Jobsons kunstneriske bestræbelser, som Hall fokuserer på i sin artikel.
