Crimson Covered

black midi have released a covers ep containing music by Captain Beefheart, Taylor Swift, and King Crimson. Their version of 21st Century Schizoid Man sounds bang up to date and like the song itself, worryingly relevant to the world we find ourselves in today... 

Last year Bill Bruford was singing the praises of black midi and their album Cavalcade on his recent inspirations playlist on Spotify. Now Bill has met up with the band's drummer, Morgan Simpson for a Talkhouse podcast. The pair discuss their respective approaches to creativity in a fascinating back and forth between two generations of players. . .
