"For this is not about conspiracy but about coincidence -- unexpected connections that are both riveting and rattling. Much religious faith is based on the idea that almost nothing is coincidence; science is an exercise in eliminating the taint of coincidence; police work is often a feint and parry between those trying to prove coincidence and those trying to prove complicity. Without coincidence, there would be few movies worth watching (''Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine''), and literary plots would come grinding to a disappointing halt. (What if Oedipus had not happened to marry his mother? If Javert had not happened to arrive in the town where Valjean was mayor?)"

More recently he has worked with Bjork, The Verve, Spiritualized, and Beck."

"The first REACTION RECORDS release is an album entitled 'Rolled Gold' by amazing sixties English pop group, The Action. Although equal in talent to their contemporaries, The Action somehow managed to slip under the commercial radar, even with music industry wizards like George Martin backing the band! What's certain is that 'Rolled Gold' transcends time and space and exists on its own terms as a masterpiece of melodic, guitar- driven rock'n'roll. Now fully restored and re- mastered, 'Rolled Gold' sounds more explosive than ever. And with artists like Velvet Crush, Matthew Sweet, Robert Pollard and Beachwood Sparks singing their praises, the Action seem destined to turn on a whole new generation of listeners..."
