LP Battie Mamzelle 'I See The Light'
The idea, quite simply, was to form a rock band incorporating
Trinidadian steel pans. It all began to
take shape during the early part of
1973 when they finally assembled the pan section – Miguel Baradas, Ralph
Richardson and Russell
Valdez – and discovered the whole concept knitted
together just fine.
The music was definitely 30 years ahead of its time...

Studio Music
Some of my early "Session" gigs.
Not very proud of though, but then it simply was a job and to hard
core fans still some hits. In those days, our instrument was considered a
"Novelty/Gimmick" thing, and one would take these "restricted-playing"
sessions, all in the cause of promoting acceptance of the instrument!

The Artist
David Hockney
is well on his way to art world super-stardom. Filmmaker Jack Hazan,
camera rolling, follows Hockney from London to New York to Los Angeles -
capturing the artist as he struggles to create what would prove to be
some of his most enduring works: those featuring Hockney's model and
lover, Peter Schlesinger. Straddling the boundary between documentary
and fiction, A Bigger Splash tells the story of Hockney's breakup with
Schlesinger and its effect on Hockney, his work, and his close circle of
friends. Originally banned for a notorious scene of homosexual intimacy,
this award-winning film, "at once precise and dreamlike," is a unique
document of a time and place, a lifestyle, and the artistic process,
unlike anything made before or since.
All used soundtracks written by Ralph Richardon.
Music recorded 1974 at
Essex Music on Poland Street, London.
Royalties collected by PRS The Performing Right Society.
