Stupid/Serious by Bill Nelson
"'Stupid/Serious' is one of several albums recorded between 2016 and 2020 that have accrued in my archives whilst awaiting an opportunity for release. The album contains 17 tracks, some of which are vocal and some instrumental. The mood varies between light and dark, surreal psychedelia and avant-rock.
Recorded on my old hardware based recording system, prior to the installation of my current software based system , the sound is richly textured and full.
As always, there's a lot to take in and, hopefully, much to enjoy." - Bill Nelson, November 2022
