about
For bang on thirty years, Robert Storey (AKA Rob Murphy ) has been the dark heart behind many a Murphy variation including Orchestre Murphy, Murphy Federation, The Murphy Love Experience, Murphy Working Stiffs, Murphy No Geisha, Murphy Patrol and numerous other, largely anonymous, recalcitrant and overlooked bands including The Plain People Of England, Miners Of Banal, The C Siders, The Nobodies. ‘Truly eccentric and absolutely out of step with any known fashion, past or present, though obliquely familiar to many of them’ - Chris Cutler ‘Runs against the grain and yet reiterates the possibilities of communication that the pop song embodies: music that speaks of a locale, we might even say (unfashionably) a community.’ - Wire Magazine “…Post-Homosexuals / This Heat / Rock in Opposition squat savants.” - Hyped To Death User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
