R Stevie Moore - Meet The R Stevie Moore! An Introduction To The Godfather Of Home Recording
Introducing DIY pop’s veteran outsider
This self-compiled 24-track sampler is little more than a dip in the vast ocean that is the 400-album discography of the legendary R Stevie Moore. Son of veteran Nashville bass player Bob Moore, the ridiculously prolific and crazily eclectic R Stevie is widely considered the king of lo-fi music.
Recording in his home and selling his tapes direct to his fans, Stevie Moore has for the last four decades effectively been functioning as a one-man underground label. His range of styles run across power-pop, punk, psychedelia, garage rock, electronica, synth-pop and even the odd burst of prog, all while having completely bypassed the conventional music business, apart from the odd vinyl release on his uncle Harry’s HP label and New Rose. Billed as his 401st album, this selection finds Stevie sounding at various points like a bargain basement relative of Brian Wilson, Syd Barrett and Todd Rundgren, and includes his classics Goodbye Piano and I Wish I Could Sing.
