So, of course, I wanted it to be for something that meant a lot to me. That was important... I knew I wasn’t going to sing, so that made it easier," said Stipe to
I must confess that, until very recently, I hadn’t really heard of Mike Cooper; more evidence, I guess, of the apparently boundless reserves of records from the early ‘70s still to be reissued (the Bob Carpenter album, due to be released on No Quarter in the autumn, is another great example I should write about soon).
