Skipping Ropes from L.S by SOUNDICIAN

Several years ago I visited an exhibition of Lowrys’ work which concentrated on his connections with the North East of England. Lowry had a habit of creating sketches on things such as napkins, scraps of paper, matchboxes, to name a few – and one was called ‘Demolition’. This small drawing of children playing on a demolition site in 1960’s Sunderland, struck a chord. It was a poignant sketch. One of sadness, as a man looks on at all the rubble in the name of progress. The children are oblivious to the fact their world is changing but the adults are well aware that things have gone forever, with the wrecking ball. This became the subject of the track ‘Skipping Ropes’
