ASKEW, ED: Rainy Day Song CD
(SGR 002CD) "Rainy Day Song is the first release of new Ed Askew material
since Ed Askew/Ask the Unicorn (ESP-Disk, 1968). The scarcity of commercially
available Ed Askew albums belies an artist in perpetual bloom -- painter and
songwriter poet. After graduating from Yale Art School in 1966, Ed began
teaching art in New Haven and shortly thereafter released his eponymous debut
(later re-named Ask the Unicorn). Ed Askew recorded a follow up called Little
Eyes that ESP-Disk chose, for unknown reasons, not to release (This album was
finally issued on CD in 2007 by De Stijl Records). And now forty years have
passed since the original ESP-Disk release and Ed Askew has a formidable backlog
of unreleased music. Rainy Day Song, his most recent work, was recorded in the
summer of 2007 in New York City, where Ed has lived since moving there from New
Haven in the 1980s. He says: 'When I start a song it's a kind of virgin
situation. There are certain things I do and I have my character like everybody
has their character. But I believe on some level that it comes from nothing --
there are certain things you do -- but in a sense: who does it?' Lyrically,
Askew bears a striking resemblance to Paul Goodman, the mid-20th century New
York City poet, novelist, gestalt psychologist, and anarchist social theorist.
Like Goodman's poetry, Askew's lyrics shift effortlessly from contemplative
abstraction to political tirades, from naturalist landscapes to graphic
descriptions of urban street life, from childhood vignettes to tales of gay
romance-conveyed in language that's at once elegant and conversational. Also
like Goodman, Askew displays (in both his lyrics and his music) a stubborn
indifference to contemporary fashion. If that's what makes Askew's music such a
hard sell for current labels and commercial audiences, it's also the source of
its timelessness. Whether you choose to listen to it now or wait for the next
round of 'reissues' forty years from now, this is music that will endure."

Notes
"this is a collection of songs written, more or less, in the late 1970s and
early 1980s in New Haven; mostly songs that had never been recorded before. it
was all done in one session. with some retakes. i had only recently stopped
performing and still knew everything by heart."

Biography
An enigma even by the ultra-obscure standards of
ESP-Disk Records, next to nothing is known about outsider folksinger Ed
Askew. Although Askew has been recording songs since the late '60s, only one
album has ever been released, 1969's Ask the
Unicorn. A solo recording, the album features Askew accompanying himself on
the ten-stringed lute-like acoustic instrument the tiple. A Latin instrument
Askew discovered as a teenager because his ukulele-playing father owned one, the
tiple quickly became a passion for Askew. While studying art at Yale in the
mid-'60s, Askew began performing at local poetry readings, and soon incorporated
the tiple into his act. Because the tiple is a difficult instrument, with the
player having to press down hard on three tightly wound strings at once to get
any sound, Askew's early material has a unique and oddly strained vocal quality
that comes from the difficulty of singing while playing such a demanding
instrument. After graduating from Yale and getting a teaching job in New York,
Askew sent a demo tape to Bernard Stollman of the ultra-noncommercial
ESP-Disk, possibly the most legendary indie label of the '60s; with his
unique but attractive sound, Askew was quickly invited to record an album for
the label. Easily one of the most bizarre and wonderful albums ever released by
ESP-Disk, Ask the
Unicorn is a psychedelic folk masterpiece, like the Holy
Modal Rounders jamming with Alexander "Skip" Spence. A second album, Little
Eyes, was recorded for ESP-Disk in 1970, but although it got as far as a
test pressing, the label was beginning to run out of money and the album was
never released. In most cases, that would be that, but while pursuing a career
as a painter and poet, Askew sporadically kept up his performing career in New
Haven and Boston during the '70s. Though he has never released anything
commercially since Ask the
Unicorn, his homemade tapes are traded on the fringe music underground. His
recent music has included harpsichord, synthesizers, and drum machines along
with guitar, piano, and his beloved tiple, but other than the more modern
instrumentation, Askew's songs remain the same: quirky, but surprisingly
accessible, with an engaging melodic sense and emotional, thoughtful lyrics that
belie the easy "freaky outsider" tag that might otherwise get stuck upon him. ~

Ed
Askew "My Heart Starts
Beating"
|
|
It is with the greatest amount of pride that we present this magnificent,
mystical collection by this timeless artist. From his earliest days at
ESP-Disk, he's achieved a staturein the music community as an "outsider",
and an artist without compromise. These songs will make you sad, happy,
frightened and full of wonder for all that the h condition can bring. This
is a collection of love songs like no other. I couldn't be more humbled
and honored to have Ed Askew here at WildCat Records. He is the embodiment
of what we try to do for the Art in which we both so deeply believe, not
to mention, a beautiful human being with a heart as large as the Universe.
"My Heart Starts Beating" is by far, my favorite album of the
last year, and the biggest surprise I've heard in decades. - Joe Phillips |
The latest Ed Askew
album, My Life, is an intimate collection of songs of reflections on Love, Life
and Humanity. The songs are at once, both intimate and universal. This work of
elegance, power and dignity, features the single, "If Fish Can Fly". It is a
poetic journey through the life and times of this truly unique American artist,
Ed Askew. As always, we are indeed very proud to count him among our most
respected premiere artists. |
