on ultra eczema Eczema UE48 LP
Weird Mix of raw Country Blues and a scala of various music-styles.
Numerous concerts in Belgium through the seventies and eighties, all by himself, or in duo's, trio's ,or with his bands: STUPID PAINTERS, DE KOLLEKTIEVE ZELFMOORD, the CHINA PIG BLUES BAND.
Between 1986 and 2004: no public appearances at all.
With great antipathy against the predictable speed of new technology in everyday life, he lived as a hermit in his mansion in his own county, far from the madding crowd. There he settled his 'Museum of Ancient Strings and Things'... a large collection of self-made objects, books, drawings, paintings...
meanwhile he compiled his old and new recordings on 25 cd's ! (field- and houserecordings: no studio material)
Very recommended: Volume 20 ('Shoes'), Volume 21 ('Isolation Cell Blues'), Volume 22 ('Voyage Autour de Mes Chambres'), Volume 24 ('Rarities 2').
The music of Jos Steen is a weird blend of wilful interpretations of early Country Blues, improvised and composed music, invented Ethnic Music, acoustic soundscapes... mostly performed on cracked instruments.

Du blues belge... Le personnage Jos Steen vient du Nord du pays mais n'en est pas pour autant l'alter-ego de William Dunker. Certes Jos connaît ses classiques et a de la bouteille, mais tellement qu'il a son univers bien à lui, follement blues comme un Captain Beefheart, surréaliste comme un Belge. Son blues c'est celui de la bonne bière, il chante la mort, l'amour, la guerre et l'argent... Le blues est universel et c'est drôle. Il sera accompagné par ses comparses Zark (guitare) et Salami (basse), de 20 ans ses cadets. Véridique: la guitare de Jos Steen porte le numéro 44.
MERCI JOS ! J'ai réalisé un rêve ce Vendredi 11 Janvier, tu sais lequel, c'est le début d'une nouvelle aventure.... A tout bientôt comme on a dit. Geneviève
Wat een ver-genoegen, wat een blijdschap bij het ontwaren van die schonen foto hieronder... Vaag placht ik mij te herinneren dat bij afsluiting van deze kamermuziek enkele badjassen spontaan op wandel gingen en dode konijnen ten dans werden gevraagd... spooky!
Hello, Thanks to accept me in your interesting space, nickel... I've always heard about you by musiciens or by friends, since many many years ago ( and i've always been curious about you !) But i've never seen or heard you , where are you ? Yes, I have your K7 ( tape 1984) Greatest Hits vol 1, cool.so... Beste wishes Harmogen, harp player from Brussel
