Dali's Car
Artemis (download)

Mick Karn, who tragically succumbed to cancer in January of this year, would have been 53 on July 24th, 2011.
To commemorate Mick's birthday, as a treat for fans, a taster for Mick's last completed project (a new Dali's Car EP) is being offered as a download.
Artemis is a re-working of an instrumental from the band's debut album and features new vocal and lyrical contributions from Peter Murphy, as well as additional instrumentation from Steve Jansen, Jakko M Jakszyk and others.
A superb reunion with Peter Murphy, the forthcoming EP, In Glad Aloneness, continues the intense and exotic experiments of the band's cult classic from 1984, The Waking Hour.
All profits will be donated to Mick's son and wife.
N.B. The download will be available from Burning Shed's Mick Karn store from 24/7/11 onwards.

My copy arrived today - lovely design.

Really like the Brel cover, 'If you go away' - the musical element leading up to the vocal is so plaintive with beautiful bass clarinet playing from Mick. It reminds me a lot of the poignant sound of Nightporter-era Japan. Very sad and very lovely.

Same here. The first times I've listened to it, I was focused on Mick, but now all the elements have blended, and it's getting better and better.
Like Blemished I too love Dali's Car version of Jacques Brel's 'If you go away'. I always wish it would go on a bit further, but very good nonetheless.
