I remember when ‘New Forms’ won the Mercury Music Prize in 1997. I had been living in London for four years; it felt like the center of the universe, and England was part of “Cool Britannia.”
People used to ask me if I would ever move back to the States, and I replied with a quick and sharp, “No!” Thinking back on NYE 1997/1998, my life also changed as our first child was born in late Dec. 1997. Time flies, but man, I remember those carefree days well. London was a different city back then, too.
Happy New Year from your old haunt, Vancouver, BC, Jamie!
