"Parctalk – A One-Sided Conversation About
Danseparc" / Mark Gane & Martha Johnson
A promotional interview with Mark Gane and Martha Johnson,
recorded in 1983 to help introduce the album Danseparc to
radio stations. As was typical at the time, the interviewer’s
questions were edited out, leaving only the artists’
answers which were pressed as a limited number of vinyl LPs.
These LPs, along with a list of the original questions, were
distributed as free promotional material to selected radio
stations. DJs then recorded themselves asking the questions
and edited them back into the conversation with the artists’
pre-recorded answers – making the interview sound as
though it were done especially for that particular station.
At some point, the master list of questions was lost while
the original tape recording remained in storage until now.
25 years after this interview was recorded, the only surviving
part of the conversation are the replies to questions that
now no longer exist. You can still find out about the ideas
and philosophy behind the music as well as insights into collaborating
with Daniel Lanois and members of the band, even without the
questions! Includes a bonus track of a 1983 unreleased version
of "Danseparc" mixed by Daniel Lanois. At this time,
Parctalk is a limited edition release available only from
Muffin Music!
