The thrilling spectacle of the stage, the pursuit of the psychedelic and the enchantment of creative arena, desire lives within any theatre, craving can be born within the sound of a prompter’s whisper or the sound of the band striking up the first tentative notes. It is in the spectacle that encompasses the spectacle that makes Purson’s new album Desire’s Magic Theatre such a caper of adventure to relish listening to.

As sure as eggs is eggs, sometimes you just got to mix up the variety of whatever comes out of the fowl and know that you can turn into a dish fit for a king, or at least offer something new with the equipment available.
Scrambled Limbs self titled debut mini album takes all the eggs available and gives them a fitting service of rememberance, a celebration of mixed emotions and experimentation that at times is mesmerizing and certainly magnetic enough to garner the attention of the listener without losing any interest over the entire enterprise.

Experience shows in all manner of ways, it makes at times what can be easy work seem dramatic and full of confidence, it can be seen as knowing full well what to expect and how to handle the situation thrown at you with the force of a juggernaut careering out of control or it can suggest in no uncertain terms that to head somewhere once tainted is a waste of time. For as Richmond Fontaine astutely point out in the tremendous album You Can’t Go Back If There’s Nothing To Go Back To, home is where they want you and where you are appreciated, everything is just scrubland and unloved inhospitable surroundings.

Truth is subjective, what one believes to be accurate, genuine feelings of bona fide existence, is in the eyes of another something of a misinterpretation, a misunderstanding between what is heard and what is conceived in the emotionally torn heart; delusion between two souls is often the case for fall out, especially when one insists that This Is What The Truth Feels Like.

It is in the ability, the sheer desire in wanting to make an impact and be remembered for being unique that makes experimentation such a yearned for approach within art. It is in the craving for hearing a voice that is new, a sound that stalks the recess of your mind and the bright glare of showmanship that makes everything you have held before so honest and warm and the drawing of entering darkness so wonderfully enticing.

To some the very thought of putting yourself beyond the self imposed or others jealous limitations is a way of keeping control on life, by inflicting their misery upon others it gives them satisfaction that the world will turn but nobody will do something extraordinary with their time on Earth. Every time an artist, an athlete or the adept produce something it tears a little hole in the dissenter’s heart, they just see it as being Over The Top.

All points on the compass eventually find a way home if you search long enough. All directions are possible in between if the search is pure and fruitful, it is how you enjoy the journey that truly is the main consideration.

There are many places within the U.K. that still hold some enchantment, some elemental force of light and breathtaking charm over the minds of those who visit the glorious reminders of our once great natural heritage, the space that lay green and full of tales of wonder and spirit dwelling before the advent of the dark satanic mills; places such as the Lakeland area of the islands in which Pete Lashley makes his Magic Corner his home and his place of inspiration.

Everything may well be temporary, everything might just be verging on the momentary and the transitory as we speed though existence, temporary is just another way of saying that we are filling in time. Yet some forms of satisfying Time’s inexhaustible stranglehold on our brief seconds are to be seen as the start of something beautiful, enduring and eternal; it just depends on fortune and the open souls of those who wish to see Time as an ally and not as a spirit to race against.

Majestic and stately, the modern Godfather of the grandiose and the beautiful Blues; in another time Joe Bonamassa would have sat at the high table with the great and the good and already have volumes of books dedicated to his output and imposing creativity sitting on library shelves and be revered across the mists of time; the down fall of such lauded attitude would be that many now would not see the glory of performance, instead it would just be another story in which older Blues fans played up to.
