Contact us at www.thedurutticolumn.com Bruce Mitchell's sleevenotes Duets with Vini Reilly The kit always looks inviting and exciting before a performance - a piece of architecture, lit to climb into, and it sounds so much better with punters in front of it! I love to walk to the drums at showtime. Some of the Durutti improvisations are tight-rope acts without net - Vini leaves gaps - where an echo suspends and he has stopped playing - the beat disappears - a silence holds the breath over stage and audience and spaces are left in the air that should not be disturbed... time hangs. Until my nerve fails. I pick up the beat and Vin resumes with furious guitar to take control of his song. Just to get through one of these pieces without fainting seems an achievement. Being drunk helps. Bruce Mitchell, Feb 2004 Vini Reilly's sleevenotes This album only exists because you have bought it. The music only has any worth or place in the world because you are listening to it. The loyalty and tenacity you have shown is incredible. The music is as much yours as it is mine. You give me a role and a purpose in life I would otherwise not have had. You prevent the greedy and destructive world of the record industry from destroying me and you keep cynicism at bay. The only way I can repay such a gift is to persevere, until one day I do actually create a body of work worth your patience. If anyone feels this is over sentimental you are to be mistaken. All I am saying here is truthful and real. Everytime anyone listens to my music either on disc or at a gig it is an affirmation of my whole life and that is something no record company could ever put a price tag on. Thank you.
