By request, Heinz Lieb Project's Walkperson from 1986 (finally)




One-off from this project, released in 1986.
A mix of ethnic or world and percussion-based so-called contemporary jazz the primary component.
The title track:





Note the politically correct but very high schooly poem on the back, written by Nasera Hassan "both the painting and the poem were created live at the concert".

Man of earthbeat

melt your simple intricate sound
to that of icicles played
in a glittering cavern.
Echoes of madness.
Echoes of sadness
wheel around in space
and time and motion.

White gloved hand
interplays with the sounds
of delicately woven silk
across a woman's body
Echoes of a gladness.
Echoes of a sadness
of Eternity in strife,
and play and peace.
