Not familiar with the Big Blue Ball project? Read on, my friends... “One week in the middle of summer this craziness happened at the Real World Studios. We had this week of invited guests, people from all around the world, a 24 hour café. It was a giant play pen, a bring your own studio party. There’d be a studio set up on the lawn, in the garage, in someone’s bedroom as well at the rooms we had available. We were sort of curators of this living mass. We had poets and songwriters there, people would come in and scribble things down, they’d hook up in the café. It was like a dating agency, then they’d disappear into the darkness and make noises – and we’d be there to record it.” – PETER GABRIEL Almost eighteen years in the making, BIG BLUE BALL grew from three extraordinary Recording Weeks at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in the summers of 1991, 1992 and 1995. It was a practical response to a problem that became a great creative idea. The Recording Weeks were arranged to clear a space between block bookings from the likes of New Order so that Real World artists with the budget for just a day or two recording could come together en masse to deliver their own albums and work on some side projects, too. The atmosphere and spirit of it was very important. The location of the studios, the café space that was open day and night. Among the united nations of performers who found their way to Real World during those weeks were Billy Cobham, Papa Wemba, Hossam Ramzy and The Egyptian String Ensemble, Sinead O Connor, Natacha Atlas, flamenco guitarist Juan Canizares, American singer Joseph Arthur, Afro Celts James McNally and Iarla O Lionaird, Japanese percussionist Joji Hirota, Jah Wobble, gospel group The Holmes Brothers, Justin Adams, Francis Bebey, Tim Finn, Marta Sebestyen, guitarist Vernon Reid, Chinese flute player Guo Yue. And those are just some of the ones who made the final cut. Among those who have been lost on the way are Nigel Kennedy, Remy Ongala, Dan Lanois and Van Morrison. The project’s originators and curators were Real World founder Peter Gabriel and Karl Wallinger of World Party and The Waterboys. As Peter recalls, “The Big Blue Ball was a working name for a project that would pull in elements from all around the world. The title came from one of the astronauts when they first left the planet’s surface and looked back and saw the earth as a big blue ball and all other divisions seemed ridiculous and arbitrary, because there’s the whole thing – and that idea seemed useful to have for this project.” After the last Recording Week in 1995, the musicians and producers dispersed, the tapes stayed up on the shelves, and the Big Blue Ball all but sank from view until producer Stephen Hague (Pet Shop Boys, Robbie Williams, Mel C) came on board to begin cutting and comping the mess of recorded material Karl and Peter had put in the can. Tchad Blake (Peter Gabriel, Tom Waits, American Music Club) was tasked with the final mixing in 2007. “It’s a fine wine ready to be drunk,” says Peter Gabriel, “It was the most fun music making I’ve ever had. I’d love to do it again.” For up-to-the-minute AAA news... RIGHT ARM RESOURCE WEEKLY READER - 5/14/08.
