Thank you Haringey Community Press for the article and front page photo in this month’s issue and Ron for finding the online download. I like the intro “Muswell Hill painter Edgeworth Johnstone shares an insight into his collaborations with Billy Childish”. Hanging the exhibition on Thursday, PV Friday, hand delivered 2-3000 flyers round Highgate with Claire from Wave who have also been promoting the show on their Instagram. Was speaking to one of the BOTH Gallery artists in Highgate and saw they have some of my flyers out in their gallery. Gave me an idea to mass distribute free limited edition prints with an invite to visit the show to get numbered and signed. Delivering flyers is one of my favourite things to do. Could easily get twenty thousand done in six months. Would have a better map based plan this time. Keep forgetting which roads I have and haven’t done. Too late for HLSI show but if I have another later in the year at BOTH or somewhere, could work.

This year’s Fan Club members on Tier 2 and above get a signed copy of the Heckel’s Horse Jr. of Muswell Hill. 100 Works book posted to them for free (including worldwide shipping). One of five free and signed publications they get each year (details here).
Fan Club copies are signed on the inside cover with a Sharpie permanent marker.
The book is 132 pages on good quality 200gsm thick silk paper. The cover is matt laminated silk paper of 350gsm thickness.
I took a copy round to a book shop on Muswell Hill Broadway today and asked if they would like to stock it due to the local interest. Primarily why I put the words “Muswell Hill” on the front cover. They’ve taken a copy and will phone if it sells. The man I spoke to happens to have recently bought a Headcoats record.

Emma and I travelled up to the new Ranscombe Studios in Rochester yesterday to record Emmas First Ranscombe album. I’d made a demo tape for it a few days earlier and had recorded Studious at the old Ranscombe Studios on Star Hill with the same engineer, Jim Riley. Was my first time at the new location, apart from a short visit with Billy a few weeks ago. It was Emma’s first time recording outside Black Ivory Printmaking & Audio Club. Mooney Ra Ra was supposed to come and shoot some video but couldn’t get herself out of bed.
The set up in chronological order: Emma and I played a runthrough of all the songs in the same room, recording vocals, guitar and drums simultaneously, using a loop pedal for parts with more than one guitar. The same set up as the rehearsal videos we put on YouTube. Emma goes home. I record bass over the top of the runthrough. Not real bass but normal guitar through a drop pedal.
16 songs recorded and mixed. 13 on the album, 3 rejects, 1 to re-write, 6 covers on YouTube, 7 originals on Fan Club only.
