Gareth Williams passed away from cancer earlier this decade but during the late 70s he was in a cult post -punk band called This Heat. After leaving the group in '80-something, he traveled across India for years. He spent the rest of his life making modest recordings with friends in Britain.
I think he's a perfect example of a quiet, modest genius.
This is from one of such projects. Recorded on analog tape.
digging this.
