Paranormal Music Society

1986 –  1998

You had to be there!

This trio of three included:

The
President
– Professor Crivici (Romano Crivici – Linsey’s
oldest friend…I don’t mean old….just from long ago….when they were
just kids….almost) – keys and violin.

Frank
Brutal
– leader of the political arm of the Society (Blair
Greenberg) – percussion and guitar.

The
Secretary
– Denis Bland (Linsey) – winds (of many
persuasions)

The Paranormals (as they were fondly called) had a cult following
in Sydney and were known for channeling the works of dead composers
(especially Hidegarde Spumoni – a lesser known Baroque composer) and
playing music whose notes were determined by rolls of a giant dice.
They improvised requests called out by the audience. Things like:
“the pinnacle guinea pig races”, “haddock”, “Bob Marley goes to
Turkey”, “Rawhide” and so on.

They recorded two albums (but only
released one – “Moving On”)

They were a legend in their own
time.
