	The Durutti Column - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Durutti Column is the ongoing band project of guitarist Vini Reilly (born in Didsbury, Greater Manchester, August 1953), usually accompanied by drummer Bruce Mitchell (and, on the group's debut album, producer Martin Hannett).
		Vini Reilly also played guitar on Morrissey's first solo album, Viva Hate, and formerly was the guitarist for Manchester punk band Ed Banger and the Nosebleeds.
		Reilly apparently saw a Situationist International poster which included the phrase "The Return of the Durutti Column", mis-spelled, a phrase which eventually became the title of the group's first album.

	The Durutti Column - History
		In the case of Vini Reilly, the original abandoned 'arty' sleeve by 8vo was used for the first time.
		Vini improvises a haunting guitar piece around her acapella vocals sampled from the soundtrack of the film 'Mulholland Drive' (the 'Silencio' mime art theatre sequence).
		Clearly, Vini is keen to play down that accolade but, on the other hand, City Life magazine used it for the front page headline for the September 2004 article on The Durutti Column to coincide with this show and the album.

	Encyclopedia: Vini Reilly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Durutti Column is the ongoing band project of gifted Manchester guitarist Vini Reilly (born August ?, 1953), usually accompanied by the talents of drummer Bruce Mitchell.
		Vini Reilly also contributed his distinctive guitar style on the first Morrissey solo album, Viva Hate.
		The name The Durutti Column column is both a reference to an anarchist militia, led by Buenaventura Durruti, involved in the Spanish Civil War, as well as the French organization Situationist International, who were known for including the phrase "The Return of the Durutti [notice the change in spelling] Column" on their manifestoes.

		Less of an intentionally confusing title than might be thought, Reilly for all intents and purposes is Durutti no matter the changes through the years -- Vini Reilly [+] does signal another new phase of the band's work, moving into a full embrace of technological possibilities via an Akai sampler.
		Reilly's singing has often come in for criticism (unwarranted, really, considering how his soft approach effortlessly suits the general atmosphere of Durutti's work), so the slew of sampled and borrowed snippets from other vocalists and musicians that pepper the album makes for an intriguing change.
		Given by Reilly to a friend to release, as Factory otherwise couldn't easily fit it into its own schedule, it's a generally more stripped-down affair.

		Reilly's playing sometimes reminds me of ECM artists John Abercrombie and Ralph Towner, and their radiant warp and waft of acoustic guitars.
		On VINI REILLY, the guitarist and his ensemble of superbly sensitive, tentative players, who do what they have always done: spin a skein of sound as delicate and intricate as jackfrost, as fleeting and prismatic as dew.
		Vini Reilly, as we know, has defected from even the most fundamental demands of life, like the need to eat.

		Because I was suicidal, and I was seriously and dangerously ill.” Vini Reilly has been ill most of his life, and this may have impacted the Durutti Column’s lack of commercial success, as Reilly for the most part has been unable to tour on a large scale.
		The thing you have to remember about Vini Reilly is that the boy [is] very ill. He's had this problem with his stomach...
		Reilly's reaction to the Stellazin was,"Your stomach's alright, but your aren't." During Primal Scream sessions Reilly experienced flashes of the past and spent a lot of time crying and screaming.

		invited Vini Reilly to join guitarist Dave Rowbotham and drummer Chris Joyce in January 1978, and together they became the Durutti Column (after a political cartoon strip used by the SI in Strasbourg during the 60s).
		Live appearances had been sporadic, however, as Vini Reilly suffered from an eating disorder and was frequently too ill to play.

	Interview (APRIL 2003) - DURUTTI COLUMN (VINI REILLY) - - - -
		Vini Reilly has always had a reputation for being reclusive and has remained on the fringes of the music biz circus for nigh on 25 years now.
		But then one of the fascinating things about "Someone Else's Party" is the way Vini utilises samples, like the snatch of a school choir on "Vigil" or the great reggae/ electro swoon of "Woman", which features a snatch of repeated vocal in a way Moby did with "Play".
		Perhaps inevitably, meanwhile, the talk drifts back to Vini's old record label, the notorious Factory Records, run by TV presenter/ entrepreneur Tony Wilson, a man with a profile sometimes bigger than the bands he worked with.

	tonevendor.com :. Durutti Column - Vini Reilly CD
		Less of an intentionally confusing title than might be thought, Reilly for all intents and purposes is Durutti no matter the changes through the years — Vini Reilly does signal another new phase of the band's work, moving into a full embrace of technological possibilities via an Akai sampler.
		With Reilly and Mitchell joined by a slew of guests — Swing Out Sister keyboardist Andy Connell; singers Pol, Rob Gray, and Liu Sola; and even former member John Metcalfe on the epic surge "Finding the Sea" — Durutti this time around pursued the organic/machine combination to even more successful conclusions than on The Guitar.
		Mitchell's overall work on percussion is less prominent than before but still present, while Reilly's guitar efforts are again simply wonderful, further testing new approaches on both acoustic and electric that call to mind everyone from John Fahey to Bootsy Collins.

	Morrissey-solo \| Vini Reilly comments on "Viva Hate" and the follow-up album that never was
		Vini would have known that, experimental as it might be, the music needs to fit Moz's voice and so would have gone with something more "out there" but also suitable to Moz.
		Vini is an extremely talented guitarist, but Viva Hate was never a "guitarists" album.
		Vini really shines on Dial-a-cliche....you get a sense as to the substance of his playing and no one can convince me that Street wrote the music to that song.

		Mark Holt, Vini's graphics magician, founder of the legendary 8vo, thinks today that three weeks at the Woolhall working with the two Stephens on 'Viva Hate' had messed him up; "He was in his Morrissey phase, wanted the picture bigger...
		For Vini, the ability to sample out the vocal tones from things he adored and then play them back into a piece of music via a keyboard was like letting a kid loose in FAO Schwarz.
		Shortly after 'Vini Reilly', there was more stuff churning out of Vini's brain / sampler than Factory could ever release, So Vin gave a bunch of tracks to his mate Paul Miller who put them out as a the 'Sporadic Recordings' the 6 tracks here are Vini's favourites from that release.

	CMT.com : The Durutti Column : Biography
		The Durutti Column was primarily the vehicle of Vini Reilly, a guitarist born in Manchester,
		Despite an early affection for folk and jazz, Reilly ultimately became swept up by the punk movement, and in 1977 he joined the group Ed Banger and the Nosebleeds.
		In 1988, Reilly backed Morrissey (also an alumnus of the Nosebleeds) on his solo debut Viva Hate before returning the Durutti Column to release a 1989 LP titled Vini Reilly, another diverse affair which incorporated vocal samples from Otis Redding, Annie Lennox, Tracy Chapman and opera star Joan Sutherland.

		Originally a five-piece, the band had boiled down to just Reilly by the time Martin Hannett produced the first Durutti Column LP in 1979.
		Afterward, Reilly began his partnership with percussionist Bruce Mitchell, adding piano and voice to his repertoire on the albums "L.C." and "Another Setting".
		Reilly in particular has begun to experiment with sequencers and other digital equipment.

	I Don't Very Well Know Why They Got No Further
		I think Vini Reilly was hired by Stephen (sp?) Street to play guitar on music that had already written for "Viva Hate".
		Reilly wasn't too crazy about the existing tracks he had to work with, and insisted that he be allowed to re-write / re-record some of them.
		For all that Street cowrote and arranged the song, Reilly's guitar on "Everyday Is Like Sunday" is so what absolutely makes it, descending glam chords in the chorus and all.

		'His obscurity [Reilly's] is the least of it.
		He has, after all, been a musician of unassailable daring and integrity from the release of his first, Martin Hannett-produced album, The Return of the Durutti Column, in 1980 — the one that came in a sandpaper sleeve that was withdrawn because it damaged the neighbouring albums in record-shop racks.
		Kill Uncle is loveable but he should have stuck it out with Reilly and made a masterpiece.

	Amazon.ca: Music: Vini Reilly [IMPORT] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Less than one year after his triumphant comeback with "The guitar and other machines", guitarist Vini Reilly offers another excellent, very diverse album which manages to include some elements from the band's mid-'80s neo-classical sound while taking advantage of the latest in recording technology.
		True to the nature of Durutti Column, it's not only Vini's unique way of guitar playing which provides the musical chemistry, but also the individualistic styles of the aforementioned vocalists and the way all these wildly varying approaches and sounds are put together.
		The edgy resonance and melodic power of Vini's work culminates with the epic, incredibly intense "Requiem again" and the album-closing "My country", two songs which will reduce you to tears because of their otherworldly beauty and the immanent melancholy and drama.

	Morrissey-solo \| Stephen Street letter in Q, on Vini Reilly
		I tend to believe Vini, just because Morrissey has a habit of making his musicians do extra work and not crediting them, but that's an old story.
		No disrespect to Vini Reilly, but if you read Johnny Rogan's book, wherein Vini speaks about making Viva Hate, you find a complete contradiction of what he's now saying.
		If I read this correctly, Vini is now complaining that he wasn't given a writing credit on 'Viva Hate' but he told Johnny Rogan he thought that "those songs were saved from being utterly mediocre only by Morrissey's performance".

	Morrissey-solo \| Vini Reilly admits to signing CD's on behalf of Morrissey
		In an interview in the Manchester Evening News 10th September (link), Vini claims that both Morrissey and himself were given 100 copies of each others album and they thought it would be amusing if they both faked each others signature and signed the CD's in question!
		Even if it was just Vini signing "Morrissey" then the funny story is enough to justify a proud ownership...
		Vini thinks this means he can just sign a few copies and flog them on e-bay as "Morrissey signed Viva Hate first editions." Times must be tough for Mr Reilly.

	Toolshit Vini Reilly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		I have to admit that I didn't like this albums predecessor 'Guitars and Other Machines' partly due to Stephen Street's squeaky-clean production, and partly to the synth and drum sounds, which have dated badly.
		Street is still on board here, but the sound is much more organic and timeless, a return to Reilly's trademark guitar textures (even Spanish guitar on the dramatic Flamenco of 'Homage to Catalonia') What is perhaps then a little ironc then is that this album also saw the ground-breaking use of the sampler.
		Granted, not in the fashion that The Young Gods or Public Enemy were using them, but, by sampling blues and opera singers and weaving them subtly into his work, Reilly was suddenly ahead of the pack (and 10 years ahead of Moby).

		"Love No More" is from a newer album, "Vini Reilly", which I think is his masterpiece, a perfect blend of his distinctive guitar playing and sampled vocals used as "colour".
		TGAOM is probably the most commercial, "rock" DC album, released at about the same time that Vini was playing on Morrissey's first solo album - other albums tend to have fewer tracks with vocals, and are quieter.
		I'm sure existing fans won't need to be persuaded, but if you haven't heard the DC before, try this one.
