Name: 15 - The sublime is disappointingly elusive by Leyland Kirby
Duration: 1 min 44 s
Description: The Caretaker conjures a quieter, more introspective spirit, lost in his own mind amidst a low-lit labyrinth of ever-decaying and antediluvian shellac phrases. Sourced from a mysterious collection of 78s, these vague snippets of archaic sonics reflect the ability of Alzheimers patients to recall the songs of their past, and with them recollections of places, people, moods and sensations.

this is where facts are faced, the battle is being lost.

Listening to this with headphones on gave me a feeling I couldn’t describe…

sounds like the end of a vintage movie. I hope this plays when I'm dying

Work on 'Everywhere, at the end of time' was all consuming 
as you can imagine. All work and no play, all work and no play. 

In celebration of its completion and only for a limited time* 
here is a surprise golden farewell. 

Compliments of the house. 

Offering you one last chance to raise a charged glass for 
those we lost along the way, for all the works, for those ghosts 
from our past, for our uncertain future and for The Caretaker. 

You are of course welcome to purchase me a drink if you find 
this work to be of personal value. 

As the old saying goes "I'm the type of guy who likes to know 
who's buying their drinks, Lloyd." 

Thanks eternally for your support. 

C'est fini.

And bliss everywhere bliss

All eyes bewildered
