Gate Spring 1 - Rh P9. A deliciously sonorous spring on a small gate on a path, high in the Derbyshire Peak District somewhere. Friends and I are on a walk, stumble in my case, I can't get any further, but I'm fascinated by this gate.
It is summer 2OO6, I have not long recorded my fist album 'Dm 1, percussion and sound recording are on my mind. My friend Stephen has mobile phone with a recorder on ( a novelty then) and bids me play the gate. I could not make recordings of my own yet, so every recording was precious, even these two. My own recordings, soon after these, I started to number as 'Rhythms', later as just 'Rh'. The fifteen recordings prior to this point I eventually call 'Rh P' for prior or previous to Rh - I numbered my own recording just to catalogue them, only later It became an Acknowledged works catalogue requiring the inclusion of those 'prior' to Rh 1 question, changing the numbering would have been a big job, hence the designation 'P'. problem solved - and my first recording with my own equipment is neatly marked.
