Chris Cutler

Chris Cutler had been in a number of bands (including Henry Cow, The Residents, Pere Ubu), has worked with many people (including Faust) and has many, excellent solo releases on record labels such as ReR and Cuneiform. He has his own brand of music, somewhere in the area of experimental and jazz-rock, although his style never stays the same (variety is the spice of life!). I was thrilled when he gave me his excellent list of the top ten things that smell bad.
