Hello there,
This
home page on Peter Hammill was my first attempt to create something with
a computer. I started working on it in October of 1997 and the first draft
was finished on the 20th of March, 1998. I have spent the whole year learning
to deal with the machine and improving the pages.
I
must say that it was an extremely hard task for me. I had no knowledge
of computing so I had to learn, step by step, even the most basic things
such as "what is a directory?". Gabriel, my 11-year-old son,
has learned things faster and helped me a lot with those strange Web languages.
Another obstacle I had to overcome was there was practically nothing on
Peter Hammill / VdGG available in Brazil . We don't have a single PH album
released here. Except for the old VdGG albums and the Still Life
CD, this site is about the only thing you will find in Brazil related to
PH/VdGG. Of course, you could always try to go to an imported record shop...
Peter Hammill -The Brazilian Site is my expression of gratitude to the genius of Peter Joseph Andrew Hammill, one of the best, greatest, and most creative musicians of our time. It is an unofficial home page and it's not connected to the artist or any recording companies.
