SUMMARY:Mississippi Records presents A People's History of Music
DESCRIPTION:We're very pleased to welcome back Eric Isaacson\, founder of M
 ississippi Records\, for an engaging illustrated talk charting a moving an
 d vital people's history of underground musical resistance.\n\nPart of Sou
 nd & Vision\n\nMaking wide\, bold swings while always coming back to intri
 cate and strange details\, this show covers music from Ethiopia\, Slovenia
 \, Kenya\, the USA and beyond\, while drawing on Eric's colourfully descri
 bed\, personal experiences of the fascist creep.\n\nIt's a whirlwind prese
 ntation of archival film\, sound clips and images that avoids political gr
 andstanding\, instead emphasizing vital anti-authoritarian stories of resi
 stance through samizdat music distribution.\n\nThe Cramps\, Jimmie Rodgers
  (The Yodeling Brakeman)\, Kipsigis Tribal Musicians\, Sting\, Scientologi
 sts\, Ethiopian pop stars\, Portland punks\, Russian bootleggers\, Spotify
 \, Octopus\, The Beatles\, The Germs\, African cowboys and Techno Fascists
  are some of the characters who will be discussed.\n\nEric is known for hi
 s humbly comical\, singular style and for his ability to revitalize audien
 ces through digging up buried treasures from the global music underground.
  He has an intuitive and captivating way of finding the kinks\, idiosyncra
 sies and soulful stories in the histories of under-acknowledged punk\, gos
 pel\, soul\, blues and roots based music from around the world.\n\nEric ha
 s previously constructed and internationally toured three other mind-alter
 ing presentations (including at Hyde Park Picture House)\, but never one a
 s timely as this — a must-experience sampling of audio and visual folk a
 rt!\n\nMississippi Records\n\nDetails\n\nDuration: 1hr 40mins\nDirector: E
