About Stephen Duffy & The Lilac Time

BUY ‘INTRODUCING TOWNES VAN ZANDT VIA THE GREAT UNKNOWN’ NOW (£10 INCLUDES WORLDWIDE SHIPPING VIA AIRMAIL):

Scholar and author Hugh Kenner bemoaned the collapse of “a public for an inexpensive bilingual Dante”. In this age of catastrophe and decline it is hard not to remember fondly The Lilac Times public collapsing shortly after closing time on a damp pavement in Nottingham.

The killer was always considered a “loner” an “outsider”. “We always wondered if something like this would happen. He kept himself to himself with his guns, antidepressants and Stephen Duffy cassettes”.

Witness the reports of misgivings related to the inhabitants of a secluded farmhouse, home to a lilac-wearing cult, escaping members of which appear wild eyed on local TV news.

Or the knitting group meeting in a local hostelry to create woollen miniatures depicting the changing line-ups of The Lilac Time and drawing sniggers from the bar staff.

He spent 30 years in the wilderness but it was a wilderness that included performances on Top Of The Pops in the 80’s 90’s and the first decade of the 21st century. He would often be heard telling the Wood Lane janitors that as Ezra Pound said the modern world “does not exists. Because nothing exists which does not understand its past or its future”. He thinks he is the reincarnation of Jacob Epstein or the king of infinite space. He used to mean something, but only to himself. Having come this far he rightly supposes there is very little point in turning back.

The Reindeer Brigade	Nov 22 2009 2:49 PM Really enjoyed the film. A sort of 'Be here to love me' with a happy ending. Will the film be released with the book? With all your Twittering and stuff you'll never get that book finished you know. Crack on! I'd put a cigarette card between you and Michael Head for Englands greatest Living Songwriter Stephen. Your film made me appreciate the value and the costs of dedicating your life to your art. Like you say "what else is there to do?"
Tess	Nov 22 2009 2:48 PM Just dropping by to say hello Stephen. Hope all is good with you. Tess...xx

Christos Mythos	Oct 26 2009 2:13 PM every single element in your body arises from a far distant super nova out in space, created billions of lightyears ago, so much to age:-), have a great day.
The Rowan Amber Mill	Oct 15 2009 4:48 PM Tracked down the Memory and Desire double (in a local record shop of all places - how quaint is that?). The tracks in their re-mastered state sound so wonderfully fresh. The copious sleeve notes alone would have made it worth buying Memory and Desire (where alse could you find a deft exposition of 'The Postcard' nestling twixt a pernod anecdote). A beautiful collection and no mistake. x.
Steve Winham	Oct 12 2009 3:42 PM Hey, I've just added my first video, love to know what you think?. Steve x
Colin Frost	Oct 12 2009 11:12 AM thanks for your support it means the world to me all the best Colin Frost
The Rowan Amber Mill	Oct 8 2009 5:24 PM Hi SD<. The Memory and Desire track sounds perfect - naturally. Searching for the double CD set so to enjoy the old favourites all over again, again. x.

Beautifuly structured, Beautiful vocals, with a simplicity that can only be described as pure genius songwriting. Stephen I applaud your work mate. pgt
Tess	Oct 4 2009 10:20 PM Love the track Back in The The Car Park...I close my eyes & let your dreamy voice come through Hope all is good with you Stephen....will also be buying your DVD...Memory & Desire

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse	Sep 28 2009 2:39 PM After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace... Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements. The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage. Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens. Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry. And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..? (C) David Franks 2003
