Caddel was born in Bedford and grew up in Gillingham, Kent.

Richard Caddel, who has died of leukaemia aged 53, was one of the leading figures in Britain's alternative poetry scene.
Caddel was also a major poet in his own right.
Caddel was a classically trained viola player, and his poetry grew out of an early interest in writing songs; he found with time that the words became more important than the music, and that he had become a poet.

 Stills From a Moving World
Richard Long's work has appealed to me for a considerable amount of time, but my exposure has been sufficiently intermittent for me to overlook the way in which his approach to what he calls 'textworks' relates to others of his generation who would consider themselves to be 'poets'.
However, as a writer Richard Caddel is certainly up to that standard and, whilst he might not wish to be labelled and limited as such, Richard Long is also in alignment with them - a phrase I hope that he would like.
Caddel's view is that a 'general reader' of poetry, as opposed to a psychiatrist, is better served by such an ordering, and that is a position one can certainly take.

 poetrymagazines.org.uk - Note by AD on The Gododdin and on Richard Caddel's phonic version of it   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Caddel's poem, which is one part of For the Fallen (other parts in shearsman and fragmente), is a similar exercise based on Neirin's early seventh-century Old Welsh poem, The Gododdin (or as the colophon has it, Hwnn yw e gododin.
Caddel makes association the foreground factor of poetry; clusters of words without syntax orchestrate a shadowy and indefinite experience; sound flows follow a pattern of memory which flows rather than stand upright, rolling along a surface which offers no depth (of coding).
Caddel produced an English poem by listening to the sound of Welsh words whose meaning he does not know.

Richard Caddel was in a long line of excellent, obscure poets of the northeast of England, the old Northumbria celebrated by his teacher Basil Bunting.
It’s the same affinity that allowed Caddel to identify with, and make his home in, the north-east; or more specifically that reduced part of the old Northumbria which approaches the Borders — the land extending from Lindisfarne, through the dales and hills as they fall into Cumbria.
Richard Caddel arrived at the Peoples Theatre, Newcastle, one evening in 1974, having heard that we were putting on some poetry readings.

RICHARD CADDEL was a poet and a champion of poetry as publisher, editor, anthologist and organiser.
That he was not better known is perhaps due to a predilection for "edges", those areas marginalised by geography, commerce or choice which his friend and fellow poet Jaan Kaplinski called the "wandering borders".
Caddel was born in 1949 and grew up in Gillingham, in Kent, and went to read Music at Newcastle University, soon adding English and History.

 Jacket 22 - In Memoriam Richard Caddel, 13 July 1949-1 April 2003
Richard Caddel’s death on 1 April deprives the north-east of one of its most observant and pertinent poets.
This is Ric, not the Richard who would have gone into print, but it’s the same man. Good-humoured, attentive to detail, witty and aware of the vulnerabilities and conflicting currents of sympathies which filled his days and between which he quite deliberately chose to negotiate his terms for things.

 Jacket 12 - Tony Baker on Basil Bunting
The editor, Richard Caddel, presents convincing arguments for the inclusion of material that Bunting, at the time of his death, had not included in the complete poems.
Caddel has respected Bunting's own arrangement of the poems and has presented the uncollected work separately.
As Caddel and Flowers explain in their portrait of the poet Basil Bunting: A Northern Life, available from the Basil Bunting Poetry Centre in Durham, Bunting's accent is "the highly specific, local language from the place where, and the people amongst whom, he spent his childhood".

 Quiet music Of Words   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
This revealing transcript of Flowers’ interview with his friend, the poet Richard Caddel, was originally published in ’01 by Rumbling Kern but West House have reissued it to coincide with their publication of Caddel’s ‘Magpie Words: Selected Poems 1970-2000’.
After asking him how the ‘Caddel’ was getting along we got into one of those sticky exchanges which begin with a few neutrally descriptive observations and end up half a minute later drowning in a sea of complexity.
This process, as it happened to Caddel, comes through loud and clear in this interview, as he describes how he came to be connected with the Morden Tower readings etc and met with early influences and forged alliances that would see him through a life-time of writing.

My own sense of why people go to the High Street is that they are drawn there by the need for resonances when in love, when bereaved and when in need of some humorous or telling commentary on factors impinging on their lives.

 The Antigonish Review: issue 120
Richard Caddel and Peter Quartermain's OTHER, an anthology of British and Irish poetry since 1970, brings to more general attention a group of poets, plugged as experimental and innovative, who do not usually publish with the larger trade publishers.
Richard Caddel is a librarian and archivist of the Basil Bunting papers at the University of Durham in the UK and Peter Quartennain is an influential professor of English at the University of British Columbia.
Where A. Alvarez skewered the Movement's "gentility principle" as the enemy of authentic poetry in 1961 in trying to make a case for Plath, Hughes, and Gunn, Caddel and Quarten-nain tag something they call the "mainstream" as the foe of the true "what-is-to-hand in the wherewe-are" poetry of contemporary Britain and Ireland (xxi).

 A review of Richard Caddel's For the Fallen in Samizdat 6
Ric Caddel is known to many American poets through “British and Irish Poets,” the Listserv he founded and, until recently, managed.
The business of the poem — its jerky monosyllables, fierce repetitions, shameless rhymes, restless prepositions and conjunctions, relentless articulation — is not to express grief but to lace it in.
As Caddel’s note indicates, For the Fallen is a poem in three parts Part one consists of 39 short slim numbered segments, where lines — no more than a word or a phrase long - are stacked one upon the other.

This book more or less coincided with the arrival of the New Generation, with Simon Armitage as the point man, and a good deal of vulgar but commercially effective media hype on behalf of the lads.
Caddel and Quartermain oppose their anthology to "the narrow lineage of contemporary poets from Philip Larkin to Craig Raine and Simon Armitage" and to their attendant "collectives" (the Movement, the Martians, and the New Generation).
He rejects a "politically correct scorecard" of race, sex or educational status and anthologies with anything other than an aesthetic agenda.
