Notes

Compilation curated by Tim Burgess on his OGenesis label to accompany his 'Tim Book Two' book and which features 'Otis' by The Durutti Column.

"The compilation, 'Vinyl Adventures from Istanbul to San Francisco', is recommendations of the great and the good in life from The Clash chosen by one of The Vaccines to Willie Nelson picked by one of The Clash. No rules. Love sit comfortably beside Joy Division, Isao Tomita next to Duane Eddy. And it's unlikely you'll find an album with music by Fad Gadget, Tchaikovsky and Allen Ginsberg."

Notes

Amigos em Portugal

Amigos em Portugal, foi editado em 1983 pela extinta Fundação Atlântica, uma editora criada por Amigos, um pouco ao estilo da Factory. Amigos esses que hoje, passados mais de trinta anos continuam as suas aventuras criativas, uns mais para a escrita e outros ainda na arte de fazer música em projetos como por exemplo os magníficos Madredeus.

Foi em 1988 que ouvi pela primeira vez a guitarra do Vini (no disco igualmente chamado Vini Reilly). Aquele som transportou-me para outros lugares e desde aí ficamos "Amigos".

O Phil Cleaver pediu-me para escrever umas linhas para a reedição de Amigos em Portugal e partilhar algumas curiosidades sobre o seu background. Em 2013, fui à procura de algumas respostas e fui descobrindo que Amigos em Portugal começa a ser pensado na visita dos Durutti Column em 1982 a Vilar de Mouros, um festival no Norte de Portugal. Tony Wilson era à data amigo do Miguel Esteves Cardoso que com alguns amigos deu início à Fundação Atlântica e convidou o Vini Reilly para gravar um disco. Segundo o Bruce, Vini foi até ao estúdio com a Francesca Wraith e gravou tudo muito rápido. Bruce não o acompanhou pois a sua mulher estava na altura doente.

O título da quarta música nasce quando Vini a mostra ao Miguel Esteves Cardoso e este diz que a melodia lhe trazia à lembrança as suas duas filhas... Sara e Tristana.

Por fim, falei com um dos Engenheiros de Som, o José Valverde que me confidenciou que a música dos Durutti Column era para eles algo de novo e que a gravação dos temas lhes deu algum trabalho, nomeadamente no apuramento da sonoridade e nas misturas finais.

Segundo José, o "Vini Reilly foi, em Paço de Arcos, pessoal afável, muito acessível na abordagem ao trabalho e ao que ele queria expressar. Calmo, introvertido e muito concentrado... é o que eu me lembro ainda".

Espero que gostem do disco,

Um Amigo, em Portugal
Luís Graça, Kingleer

Amigos em Portugal

Amigos em Portugal, was issued in 1983 by the now defunct Fundação Atlântica, a label created by Friends (Amigos), along the lines of Factory. Friends that today, more than thirty years later are still in their creative adventures, ones in writing and others still in the music scene with projects like the magnificent Madredeus.

It was in 1988 that I heard Vini’s guitar for the first time (on the ‘Vini Reilly’ record). That sound took me to other places and since then we have become... Amigos.

Phil Cleaver asked me to write some notes for the reissue of Amigos em Portugal and share some of the background about it. In 2013, I went looking for some answers and I've discovered that Amigos em Portugal starts in 1982 on a visit to Vilar de Mouros, a local festival in the north of Portugal. Tony Wilson was friend of Miguel Esteves Cardoso, one of the founders of Fundação Atlântica, who invited Durutti Column to record. So, as Bruce told me, Vini went to the studio with Francisca Wraith and recorded it very fast as he used to do it. Bruce didn’t go since his wife was ill at the time.

The fourth track title has particular story. One day, Vini played a track to Miguel Esteves Cardoso, who then told Vini that the sound reminded him of his two daughters... Sara and Tristana.

Finally, I've spoken to one of the sound engineers, José Valverde. He told me that Durutti Columns's sound was something new at the time for them and they had a hard job with most of the tracks, specifically to shape the sound and create the final mix. Vini – for José – was very easy going, calm and highly focused.

I hope you enjoy the record.
