Chris Watson | Embleton Rookery | Stepping Into the Dark | Touch | 1996 | recorded May 7, 1983; Watson's notes: "The churchyard looks out to the sea and across to the castle at Dunstanburgh Head, the vertigo cliff face forming a curve to create what was once a remote deep water harbour, used by Tudor monarchs. Maybe shipwrecked sailors have returned, reincarnated as the rooks that have chosen upon the old stone church in Embleton, whose name itself gives off a particular hum. Is it that the rooks are only rooks, and they sound dark to us because the Black Bird has so many associations with malevolence and ill-omen? Lethbridge might have said that the birds come here, largely due to this always pagan site having obvious associations with the strong atmosphere of its ley lime and ritual past. Today, cars file past on their way to a family picnic on the promontory. Go there at dawn, or last thing at night, out of traffic hours, and another sound takes over. The acoustic of the place spins the parliament of the rooks through the cold air, its stillness, and into the timeless chaos, as always, driven on by the ringing of the bells." | 0:34:20 (Pop-up) |

but Dodds was absolutely a genius. maybe his relevance to this program, if i am not totally misguided, might be his contribution to New Orleans regional/folk culture?
i deeply appreciate your comments & hope i'm making at least a little sense here!
