Jarboe

SPB: Given your long list of collaborations, which is the one band/artist not around anymore that you would have wanted to collaborate on a release with and why? 

Jarboe: The artist with whom a collaboration both adventurous and outside all comfort zones would have been a role in a film by Henry Kenneth Alfred "Ken" Russell.

The why ? based on his masterpieces such as The Music Lovers, The Devils, Savage Messiah, Mahler, Tommy, Listomania, Valentino, Altered States, Gothis, Salome's Last Dance, The Rainbow, etc etc etc
