Encyclopedia > Red Square (band)

Red Square was a free improvising band from Southend-on-Sea, Essex, England during the 1970s.


Consisting of Ian Staples (electric guitar), Jon Seagroat (bass clarinet) and Roger (percussion), the group played extremely loud and intense jam sessions supporting other like minded musicians such as Henry Cow, Lol Coxhill, etc.


Red Square also played regularly on a semi squatted basis at The Queens, a dilapidated hotel in Westcliff-on-Sea, where, according to a local urban myth, their set drowned out a concert by Cliff Richard, who was playing half a mile away at another venue.


The group was also involved with the left-wing political organisation Music For Socialism.


Staples and Seagroat moved to Oxfordshire, and worked together in other bands including the dance based The Duffs and ambient/techno duo B sO gloBal.

red: Definition and Much More from Answers.com (2770 words)
Red is the color of the passion (emotion), romance and sex, (because of its association with blood, which is responsible for arousal) thus the red of a Valentine heart and of a "red-light district".
Red is the color used for critical or important systems (such as emergency lighting) that operate in low-light or night-time conditions, as rod cells in the human eye do not respond to it and therefore does not interfere in the eye's ability to focus in dim environments.
Red light is the first to be absorbed by sea water, so that many fish and marine invertebrates that appear bright red are fl in their native habitat.
