THE COLDHARBOUR DIARIES: Judy and the Aliens


 I have just released a digital album, and—partly as an experiment to see if what people say about the current state of the music  industry—and partly to stoke my massive ego, I am actually trying to promote it for a change, but sharing my experiences with you guys in readershipland...



I received a very interesting snippet of knowledge the other day.

According to one of the books by Joan Aitken, a cold harbour was an unofficial place of safety, maintained by vagrants and vagabonds. I had been reading Aitken’s Cold Shoulder Road whilst I was mixing the album.

However my old friend Judy Ja’afar one time head honchess of BUFORA (the British UFO Research Organisation, if you didn’t know) thought I was being crafty in my titling:

“Project Cobra Mist run out of Orford Ness and East Anglia bases leased to America. Allegedly pulled in 69/70 but continued under the name Cold Harbour. There is much to tell, but not on here.”

Art imitating life again..
