#How the Weeks Fade

Homage to Mark Hollis

 

Mark David Hollis (4 January 1955 – 25 February 2019)[a] was an English musician and singer-songwriter. He achieved commercial success and critical acclaim in the 1980s and 1990s as the co-founder, lead singer and principal songwriter of the band Talk Talk. Hollis wrote or co-wrote most of Talk Talk's music—including hits like "It's My Life" and "Life's What You Make It"—and in later works developed an experimental, contemplative style.

 

Talk Talk disbanded in 1991. In 1998, Hollis released an eponymous solo debut album, Mark Hollis. In an interview at the time, he said: "To me the ultimate ambition is to make music that doesn't have a use by date, that goes beyond your own time." He also said: "Technique has never been an important thing to me. Feeling always has been, and always will be, above technique."

 

As of 1998, Hollis lived in Wimbledon, London with his wife Flick (a teacher) and their two sons. Hollis' desire to spend more time with his family was a major reason that Talk Talk stopped touring after 1986, and his reason for retiring from the music industry in 1998.

We had a wonderful September and now we are approaching the longest season of the year.

Yes, because there are now two seasons; long autumn with sporadic devastating winter accents and a shorter summer with sporadic devastating spring accents ....

 

A warm greeting, Flickr friends!!

I hope you're fine. : )

 

The photo is of my sister! I created the scenography : )
