- A visual record of my first evening and subsequent full day in Paris (9th & 10th September). My friend Mark and I wind down at jazz clubs, I go on an errand for Michael Moorcock and relish the beauty of the City of Light by day and night.

PLEASE READ: Part Two of the Vlog will appear in around a week and will be focused on shopping for books in Paris. Do watch The Big Tusk in concert video that goes up on Monday 16th, great for anyone who likes electronic music, improvisation, jazz and avant-rock. Moorcock interview will stream from this coming Thursday, ca va?
Ca va bien, merci.
Great stuff Steve, looking forward to Moorcock interview . Happily and much to my surprise, I picked up 4 Moorcock hardcovers in Bordeaux today. The Elric Saga, Parts I, II and III, and Corum: The Coming Of Chaos.
Keep up the sterling work, I shall become a member as soon as my budget allows.
Finally I believe that silver sphere in the video was the Paris 2024 Olympic torch ✌
@@MaidhcOD It definitely looked like a hot air balloon- either way, it rocked! I look forward to you joining The Club Room.
That was wonderful! ✨
Good clip of Mike as a teaser, always nice to hear him happy. And I enjoyed the views of your walkabout. Thanks.
Cheers Joe- Super-Thanks is very helpful here, especially as the music video I'm posting tonight will not be monetised. Mike was on good form. Full interview later this week, probably thursday.
Great stuff, you never know what you will learn here, pork pies included!
It's an endless journey of self-discovery. Check out The Big Tusk video I've just posted, Steve, you'll love it!
@@outlawbookselleroriginalare we sure he really just wasn't asking you to go to the shop and pick up a bag of Lies?
Or is that only Northerners?
@@waltera13 As you will discover, the Pork Pies thing goes far deeper.....
This is another fine example of what makes this channel so special. Well done, Steve. Mr Moorcock is looking good, it has to be said. Can't wait to see the whole interview. What a tease this one was! : ) )
Thanks Clive, there'll be the exclusive Club Room vlog on tuesday night with more MM and the full conversation on Thursday. Tomnorrow night 37 minutes of The Big Tusk, a great band!
@@outlawbookselleroriginal Cheers, Steve. See you in the Club Room on Tuesday after my late shift.
Lots of nostalgia for Paris. Loved walking the streets and stopping in historic buildings. And I do enjoy jazz! Looking forward to more.
Thanks Richard! Watch The Big Tusk tomorrow evening on the channel- 37 minutes worth: they do about 18 minutes improvisation type material, then about the same of lyrical, melodic stuff, great band.
Hi Stephen. Nice to see Michael Moorcock looking so well. Would have loved to see more of him. As one of my greatest literary heroes along with Harlan Ellison it's always been a big regret that I was once standing three feet from him but never got the chance to have a word.
Anyway I've never been to Paris but I have now. Nice one mate 👍👍
Hey Kenny, great to hear from you, glad the DAW collecting is going well! You WILL see a LOT more of Mike M here as of tomorrow night, a 58 minute interview will stream from 6.15pm!
@@outlawbookselleroriginal Ah, music to my ears. Thanks Stephen.
Thanks for taking us along with you, Steve.
Pleasure. Watch The Big Tusk video streaming from later this evening, they were awesome!
Looking forward to the next installment Steve 🙂
Thanks Jules, I've been working on this stuff hell for leather since yesterday morning, I need to catch up with your latest videos, that ebay one looks insane...also eager to hear about and see how the Penguin and Zardox fairs went! Hope you are well, my friend!!!
How fun - loved the video! It means a lot to see places that my wife and I have also visited. Hope you have/had a great time and can't wait for the Moorcock video!
I haven't read any of Moorcock's sword & sorcery or SF, really. I've read one Jerry Cornelius and a number of the Colonel Pyat novels and some London-themed short stories, as well as a book whose title escapes me set in the court of Elizabeth I. My favourite work of his is Mother London (and its sequel King of the City) - an outstanding novel which I re-read every decade. Looking forward very much to the interview. I'll try and watch more Moorcock videos from your archive before then. I like some jazz-inflected electronic avant-rock - still miss Tortoise, so looking fwd to Big Tusk, as well.
The Big Tusk vid will be up tonight. You'll love it. The first of three bookshop events I set up and ran for Mike was for 'Mother London' in hardcover back in 87/88. We had a big queue and sold 120 books, including at least 50 of the hardcover, great days. Hope to have the interview up on Thursday night.
Nice ...
You'll see The Big Tusk here full-blown tomorrow night...37 minutes worth: a drone start, some impressionistic stuff, then rocking and lyrical material. Nice indeed!
Fab!
Jazz in Paris! It makes me want to put on some Miles Davis or Dexter Gordon who both had their Parisian periods.
Yes, many jazz musicians- particularly the black guys- felt very at home in Paris. Have you seen the feature film with Dexter Gordon set in Paris? I think it's called 'Round Midnight'...
@@outlawbookselleroriginal I've not seen the film, but know of it. I'd like to see it as it has many great musicians like Herbie Hancock and John McLaughlin .
@@SlowDazzle11 It's a good one.
A great video, Steve! A pub crawl with live music and good beer is my idea of heaven. I've been lucky enough to do it in many cities, Granada in Spain is a standout because of the beer and tapas tradition, but I've never done it in Paris.
Cheers Jim! Tomorrow night you'll see half of The Big Tusk in concert on the channel, 37 minutes of improv and lyricism- begins with the way out stuff, then gets more tuneful, lovely guys!
Great stuff, always enjoy your out and about material. Is it true that you can’t bring pork pies through customs? I’ve been bringing pies and black puddings over all the time for the last 25 years! Anyway, looking forward to the upcoming Paris vlogs. Take care.
It is illegal to bring meat products into the EU from the UK according to all the sources I checked. It's difficult to find out exact details around personal use and packaging, however. Next Paris Vlog will be a member exclusive, then there'll be another open access one in around a week, maybe earlier.
@@outlawbookselleroriginal think I’ve stitched myself up with my comment! I’ll check out The Big Tusk, I’ve seen posters of them around my region, cheers for the heads up!
@@grassstaggers8560 My video of the first part of their set is up now on the channel, check it out!
O Sing to me O salubrious sojourner! Sing to me a melodious melange! A punctilious potpourri whereupon to feed the Gods!
Bring offerings of pork pies, and come into their courts. . .
You tease
37 minutes of The Big Tusk in the subsequent video, streaming now.
