How could I have forgotten Chadbourne, and what about vocalists, apart from Bjork has anyone leftfield penetrated the mass media.
and can anyone think of anybody , my mind is a blank apart from Diamanda Galas.


Bjork is a great example of someone who is still selling some records even though she has moved well out of the safety zone. I would love to hear her work with someone like Zorn or Joelle Leandre. She hasn't had a Gold record in America since Homogenic but even Medulla sold 250k. Which the likes of Kronos Quartet could only dreeam of. 50k is a very good result for someone like that.


Medulla was pretty out-there for a record by a major artist. As was Drawing Restraint 9, although I don't know if that sold much.
