About This Blog
I’ll Be Dead Before You Break My Heart is part blog, part ever-expanding mix tape, dedicated to the man I’ve fallen in love with, English conductor John Wilson.
IBDBYBMH is also, in a roundabout way, dedicated to the ever lively intellectual spirit of author/composer/TV personality Anthony Burgess (1917-1993; born John Burgess Wilson and confirmed with the saint’s name Anthony in the Holy Catholic+Apostolic Church), the first Brit I ever really grooved on.
