R. Stevie Moore – The Swings' Eulogy
Biography
Nashville, United States (January 18, 1952 – present)
In February 2005, newspaper writer Tammy LaGorce described Moore as a “lo-fi legend” in the New York Times.
Moore, born in Nashville, Tennessee, made his commercial recording debut at age seven, singing a duet with Jim Reeves entitled “But You Love Me, Daddy” on the RCA Victor album Songs To Warm The Heart.
Moore was gifted with intuitive proficiency for guitar, bass, keyboards, percussion, and songwriting. In 1966, he began pursuing what would become his lifelong passion, home recording, using a reel-to-reel tape deck set up in his basement. In 1967, he formed his first band, The Marlborough (a rock combo). He also began working for his father as a studio musician, and as an assistant at Mimosa Music, his father’s music publishing company.
After dropping out of Vanderbilt University in 1971 to pursue a career as a professional artist, performer and entertainer Moore issued his home-recorded 1976 debut album Phonography on his uncle Harry “H.P.” Palmer’s HP Music label. The initial run was limited to 100 copies.

Can you imagine he made 14 albums in 1982 and 17 albums in 1983? He's probably the most productive musician of all time

Is anyone here interested in Stevie's discography? I'm currently investigating it. It's incredible. Over 400 albums and a lot of it is genius! Some albums are harder to get, for example "Pleasant Tents" from 1982. Can't find it on his Bandcamp page, which sucks cause I'm a perfectionist and need all his stuff. I'll probably end up ordering the CDR from his website.
