Having rocked out the rest of the millennium with The Lord Litter Band, then Lord Litter & The Lazy Sleepers, Jörg went back to solo recording again. I lost a few years here myself, so let's jump in after my... er... 'sabbatical'. This is Litter writing for the M&E Showcase towards the end of 2013;

In 2011, I recorded a whole album entitled "Keep on Dancing". All was done. Then .. digital disaster .. hard drive crash .. no backups ... all gone. .. except this one song (which .. strange ... was my fave from the album). It features an instrument which became, after years on the attic of my life, a regular played one .. the uke! It is now an important and beloved sound for my new duo Meta Georgia.

   Lord Litter - Break Free (2:25)

And then a few months later for the May 2014 edition;

Taken from a release I thought was lost in digital disaster. But my girlfriend found a finished mastered CD in her archives in late 2013. So now it's available, the CD: 'Still Dancin', recorded late 2011, released 2014. Lord Litter - all vocals and instruments, except the muted trumpet.

And to his last great love, the words of the man himself from the May 2014 edition...

Taken from the CD 'Cream of Tartar', released 2013. Our first release after only 30 years .. yes it's true ... we know each other from the 1980s .. were in bands and cooperatives then .. met and met and met again and again and ... til we finally realised we're meant for eachother .. now we're together in music and in life. Hilke Hesse: voc, guitar, composition - Lord Litter: ukulele, voc, production.

   Early Bird (3:31)

And from the September 2014 edition...

We wanted to record one of the songs from the forthcoming CD .. but it was a bit too early .. life you know .. life. So we decided to send one more of the songs from our first CD, 'Cream of Tartar' (2013). We were mucho delighted that people seemed to like 'Early Bird' which we had here last time .. so here's another little flyin' animal.

   Baby Bumble Bee (2:56)

A N D   F I N A L L Y . . .

This solo track actually dates from 2000, recorded specially for our United World Underground compilation CD, hence why it fits better at the end here. In 2017, to mark Music & Elsewhere's 25th anniversary, the whole album was re-issued as part of the 30 hour plus United World Underground Collection, thus making it the very last Lord Litter track we ever had the pleasure of releasing...

   Lord Litter - Love Freak (3:26)

Litter's support for the project was as enthusiastic as ever, dedicating a large chunk of the Friday 13th October 2017 edition of his radioshow, Magic Music Box International, to it...

Lord Litter writing for the September 2014 edition of the M&E Showcase...

This is from the online release: 'The Space-Erly Brothers', with Charles Rice Goff III. Since 2011 - I concentrate on making music with Meta Georgia. Solo recordings became rare. With 'Still Dancin' I reached some kind of end, so a longer break is welcome. .. one exception though ...: During the twelve months between January and December, 2011, C Goff III and I produced the eight recordings in this collection. Never having met in person, Goff (USA) and myself began a long friendship as postal correspondents during the mid-1980's. Over the years, we exchanged many volumes of original recordings with one another, but we two great believers in the home-recording underground had never collaborated to compose music together until we embarked upon this project. We achieved our results primarily by modifying original audio files that we exchanged over the internet. 'Way Too Soon' is a composition by Charles Rice Goff III which I produced alone (he produced my 'You Pump Me Up' from the 'Torn Between Temptations' tape. 'Way' happened very organic / natural, when I picked up the ukulele .. you can still download the whole release for free, I'm sure Mr. Magic will put the link on the end.

Of course I will, I'm nice like that...

◄ THE ELECTRONIC COTTAGE INTERVIEW (September 2018)         THE FINAL MAGIC NET LORD LITTER ARTICLE (November 2018) ►

In September 2018, we switched roles and I granted him an interview for Electronic Cottage, which he was writing for at the time. Thinking back, it was probably the most in depth one I've ever given, easily drawn out of me by a trusted old friend. More like sitting outside a pub in summer, chatting over a pint. A month or so later, I published what would be a final article about his activities on here. Not that he ever stopped. Right up to the end. I'll miss him. I doubt I'll be alone it that. Farewell, my friend, and say hi to John for me...
