The second International Observer album, Heard, is not your typical electronic dub long player...
...and its creator has spent well over 25 years in hot pursuit of an artistic expression that stimulates and satisfies and in this case,
reaches towards the sublime.
As the '70s progressed Tom Bailey (aka International Observer) followed a path familiar to many of his generation: getting his 'overseas experience' gained
a life-long fascination with Indian culture, spiritual values and music (manifested recently in the Holiwater Project with Vikash and Prabash Maharaj which
toured India to ecstatic reviews). Meanwhile, the post-punk foment of the late '70s embroiled Tom in an anarchic scene that ultimately gave birth to his 'pop
experiment', the Thompson Twins.
