‘From recording for Brian Eno’s Obscure Records imprint in 1975 and co-publishing the radical music magazines Musics and Collusion, to developing music programming for the BBC and releasing his own recordings of Yanomami Shaman rituals — from working with artists like Bjork and Prince Far-I — Toop has experienced one of the most interesting careers in contemporary music. Musician, listener, scholar, reporter, humanitarian, parent, iconoclast — David Toop brings his own life in music to focus in a remarkable, engaging read.’
