Brian Lipson catches an ear, on Spinning on Air (David Garland/WNYC)
A computer purchase that led to a call from the Secret Service; the five best things in the world; the importance of nightmares; the solace of playing a trumpetthese are topics of songs by Brian Lipson. Brian hones his austere songs to a sharp edge, yet they have a friendly, homemade quality. Accompanying himself on guitar, Brian sings his songs in the WNYC studio and talks about them with host David Garland. David stumbled on a micro-release CDR of Brian's songs and is pleased to offer them wider exposure on Spinning On Air. Also included are songs by other composers who are getting maximum effect by paring down their music: The Robot Ate Me, Jana Hunter, Vashti Bunyan, and Brian's sister Rachel Lipson.
