Philip Johnson

Philip Johnson is an avantgarde artist who started making music in autumn 1978 and released his first cassette (54 Minutes of P. Johnson) in 1979, one of the earliest participants in the British independent cassette scene. Between 1979 and 1981 he released about 20 cassettes, until 1981 when Johnson became a partner in Namedrop, a short-lived independent record label (which also released Johnson full-fledge Lp ‘1982 – Youth the Morning’). When Namedrop collapsed Johnson went back to releasing cassettes and providing tracks for compilations, mostly cassette compilation (among which Blues Vol. 2, released by Alan Gill’s Bopadub records). In 1981 Johnson released material also under various pseudonyms such as Ancient Regime, the Barringtons, Flower Perverts.
