The Holy Grail: Bill Callahan's 'Smog': Dec 10, 2001 Peel Session

'This one to me is a time capsule more than most any of my recordings. All music is a time trapped in time that preaches timelessness - preaching either convincingly or not. But with a radio session such as this, there is a different aspect. It's all live, all first take, no overdubs. Also I think having the BBC engineers at the controls, with their own aesthetic, not one I am bringing to the studio, that makes it more encapsulated - 'remember that day we did that?' The circumstances and the memory of the smell of the studio makes it stand out. So it's more of a performance maybe than a usual recording, because the audience (engineer and producer) were foreign to us. British, milk in tea. So we gave them something to show them who WE were - Dale Coopers with our black coffees.
