Note: | RARE. *Thick Pigeon was perhaps one of the more mysterious artists to record for Factory. The group was essentially a vehicle for songwriter Stanton Miranda and arranger Carter Burwell plus a rotating roster of guest musicians. Based in New York, the duo recorded a handful of oblique, minimalist singles for Les Disques du Cr?puscule (a label, based in Brussels, that had strong links with Factory) in 1981-82 before moving sideways to Factory for their first album Too Crazy Cowboys, Fact 85, in 1984. The second Thick Pigeon album, Miranda Dali, appeared on Cr?puscule in 1991. |
