So, listening to Throbbing Gristle today - got a copy of the 10CD TG+ thing recently - and quite admiring the guitar work of, I think, Cosi Fanni Tutti. Mainly because it's not very guitar-y. And I started thinking about non-musicians who are also good musicians.
So, the likes of Philip Jeck who doesn't really play a 'proper' instrument, or play anything ostensibly 'musical' but still manage to make beautiful music. Also, the like of Keith 'AMM' Rowe who plays guitar but doesn't play it in a guitar-y way.
I've got a few other non-musician musicians in mind, but I thought I'd float this out there, see what you lot think.
NB, I'm not terribly interested in people who make noise - when done well, very good, but noise (the genre) is necessarily opposed to the idea of musicality. I'm thinking of people who make beautiful music in spite of the way they make it. If that doesn't make sense, well, fuck you and your people.
