Description
Colin Offord
Empty Vessels
Australian pressing
EMI/Wombarra YPRX-1881
Limited Edition: No 361 of 500
This is an original Australian EMI custom pressing of Empty Vessels by Colin Offord. Only 500 were pressed and this one is numbered 361 and signed by Offord, '81 on the rear cover. The front cover is hand painted so each one is different - compare it to the front cover of the earlier pressing I also have for sale.
Through a life time of artistic exploration, collaborations and travel Colin Offord has developed an international art form with a distinctly Australasian character. A synthesis of music, visual art and performance that embraces western experimentalism, folk music, improvisation, East Asian, and Aboriginal influences.
“Magical and extraordinary, a musician and artist of genius. A real national musical treasure.” Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald
“Offord sings in a gloriously rich voice of exceptional range. The sound he makes carries the breath of angels.” John Shand, The Sydney Morning Herald
“Offord is a genuine original. His music is immediately accessible, probably because without artistic pretentiousness or self-consciousness, it manages to reach into some kind of collective sub-conscious and touches sensitivities which are both mythic and familiar.” Bruce Elder, World Music, The Guide
