Gavin Bryars - Sinking Of The TitanicGavin Bryars was born in Yorkshire, England in 1943. His first musical forays were as a jazz bassist working in the early 1960s with improvisors Derek Bailey and Tony Oxley. Bryars later worked with composers John Cage and Cornelius Cardew, founded the Portsmouth Sinfonia and collaborated with Brian Eno on his famed Obscure imprint. The Sinking of the Titanic, Bryars' first major composition, was inspired by the tragic event of the British passenger

Gavin Bryars was born in Yorkshire, England in 1943. His first musical forays were as a jazz bassist working in the early 1960s with improvisors Derek Bailey and Tony Oxley. Bryars later worked with composers John Cage and Cornelius Cardew, founded the Portsmouth Sinfonia and collaborated with Brian Eno on his famed Obscure imprint. The Sinking of the Titanic, Bryars' first major composition, was inspired by the tragic event of the British passenger liner's cross-Atlantic maiden voyage. Bryars eloquently reconstructs the passengers' experience - at once forlorn and eerily calming - through assemblages of understated strings and indeterminate elements. A core principle of the piece is that the ship's band continued to play as the vessel went down. One of the most sublime works in the modern classical canon, Titanic remains Bryars' magnum opus. Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet, the album's second sidelong track, is based on a tape loop of a London street singer captured in the early 1970s. Featuring Derek Bailey, Michael Nyman and John White, Bryars' composition gradually builds around the cripplingly poignant voice until it's emotional force is almost too much to bear. It's no surprise that Jesus' Blood is known as Tom Waits' all-time favorite piece of music. Produced by Brian Eno in 1975 as the inaugural release on Obscure, The Sinking of the Titanic draws the listener in to a majestic world. While these exquisite, hymn-like recordings have not changed in nearly 50 years, their deeply personal nature and the audience's attention to their subtlety have only strengthened over time.

Great Quality, 100% cotton, buy 1 size larger. I’m 100% happy!
Size: Large, Color: Black Charcoal Heather Stripe, Pocket Description: Pocket
I will be buying more of these. I knew they were 100% cotton so I bought a large when I normally wear a medium. After I washed it in warm water and dried it in the dryer, it fits perfectly. The cotton is of great quality not thin and flimsy. I expect to get plenty of wear out of this t-shirt. Also, it did not fade. I recommend buying one size larger.

Quality.
Color: Dark Indigo, Size: 34W x 29L
This pair Lee jeans, made on Mexico, fit perfect , zipper works great, 35.96 cost works for me. The pair of Smith jeans , zipper a struggle to make it work, zipper short in length, made in China, 51.62 does not work for me. You need to check quality of work from Chinese made products.

7 belt loops!
Color: Original Stone, Size: 36W x 32L
Finally Lee is making a pair of jeans with seven belt loops! And in loose fit! 50-year-old men with Dad bodies should not be wearing skinny jeans. Anyway great pair of jeans, size wise it's the same size as all the rest of my jeans. Should be good for summer work. The denim is a bit on the thinner side so I don't know how long they will last but they're good for now

Good jeans
Color: Retro Stone, Size: 36W x 34L
The jeans were delivered in a rather thin plastic bag; no box in an area that could have been exposed to bad weather. There was a very small imperfection in the bottom of one cuff that was not caused by the wrapper being flimsy. Not worth sending back, but packaging should have been bettet.
