Frontier Psychiatrist…

Ok, it’s not possible to leave Barcelona, even on a short trip, without visiting at least one of the crazy mans iconic works. After a morning cortado at our favourite old coffee house its was time for a walk up the impressive and affluent ‘Passeig de Gracia’ to take a gander at old Antonio Gaudi’s avante garde workmanship. His backer, Mr ‘loadsamoney’ Guell, gave him free rein, and boy did he take advantage of this opportunity. ‘Casa Batllo’ was testimony to this and his bonkers architecture can be found dotted all around this city. 

When you have seen one work of art, you get the gist…


“This boy needs therapy”


“ you’re crazy in the coconut”



To pay homage to this guy I have selected an appropriate track by the ‘Avalanches’, ‘Frontier Psychiatrist’ fits the bill with an equally bonkers video to accompany. Relax, kick off your courgette root slippers and enjoy…
