Shock & Awe
This is how I felt after watching a documentary on Edwyn Collins, who has survived 2 massive brain haemorrhages.
Shocked at the radical change in his cicumstances, but this is tempered by my sheer awe & respect for him with his fight back into health.
His wife has helped him so much & there was a lot of love shown in the documentary.
I thought about Robert Wyatt as I watched this & how he has produced his best work since his accident.
Edwyn’s voice is still off the mark, but the drive that created Orange Juice & his other masterpieces like 94’s ‘A Girl like You’ will no doubt push him on to continue with his recovery & his work.
