I knew Steve in the mid eighties in London (Stoke Newington). His flat was fascinating but I found him rather intimidating. I liked his girlfriend Sue a lot, they were in the Househunters together at the time. I wonder if he's in the same flat? I hear most of his contemporaries and friends at the time moved to Brighton. If this was recorded in 2017, he looks amazing. (Looks like he's in the same flat or similar, thought his flat back then was in Stoke Newington, but perhaps it bordered Dalston, I could never figure out the border, ha!!). I bet his mate Colin is nearby then.
A Trip to Marineville is still my favourite album, decades later. Nothing comes close.
I’ve just bought a copy of that very album!
Jane To rom Occupied Europe is still one of my favorite albums, so many good songs!
Very likeable and down-to-earth guy for such a genius!
Thank God y'all stuck together for all you did - Swell Maps music helped save my life the last couple years
Very interesting interview, thank you!
Ah the memories.......
Great interview. Had ‘What Ever Happens Next’ in the ‘80 s. Still have it.
The Painted Word. I had a copy of ‘the painted sleeve’ ! Sh*t, gave it away to a mate of mine about 35 years ago.
Really enjoyed,thanks!
Superb stuff!
Fascinating stuff. Cheers for posting.

He's in Dalston but he moved from the flat

I scour the 70s and 80s for musicians who cite krautrock influences
