  • Description

    This album is titled after a poem by celebrated poet Marianne Moore, and is anchored mainly in her life and work. But the cast also features visual artist Joseph Cornell, a spinster named Betty, the Greek goddess Athena, a pair of doomed rolling pigeons, a curiously delicate prize-fighter, several fragments of poetry, a row of plastic lobsters surrounded by paper lace and a dead robin. The album was recorded at two locations in southern Manitoba, partly at the historic Manitou Opera House and the rest at the Prairie Recording Co. headquarters, a factory loft in an industrial park of Winnipeg. The contrast in these two locations is audible in the recording. With much different accompaniment at the two locations, Christine Fellows produced the album, sang and played piano, ukulele, glockenspiel, typewriter and Nord Electro II (Wurlitzer, Rhodes, organ), and compiled all the extraneous bird sounds. Tracks: Let Us Have Done With The Umbrella Of Our Contagion / Not Wanted On The Voyage / Saturday Night On Utopia Parkway / The Spinster’s Almanac / To A Prize Bird / Cruel Jim / What Makes The Cherry Red / The Parlour Rollers / Outcast / Poor Robin / The Goddess Of Macrame / Nevertheless / A Pantry Ballet / Yours, And With Ever Grateful Wonder / What Are Years?
