Description
Colin Offord
Empty Vessels
Australian pressing
EMI/Wombarra YPRX-1881
Limited Edition: No 7 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 7 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 later 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
