In 2007, a record collector in Edmonton picked up a mysterious album entitled "L'Amour" by an unknown artist known only as "Lewis" at a flea market for one dollar. Today, original albums by Lewis have sold for more than $1,800 and his albums have been reissued this month by the well-respected record label, Light in the Attic. But the mystery remains: where is Lewis now? He's been identified as Randall A. Wulff of Calgary, Alberta. Beyond that, the trail goes cold. Peter Armstrong speaks to Jon Murphy, the collector who discovered the album, his friend Aaron Levin of Weird Canada, Light In The Attic's Jack Fleischer, and music criticGeeta Dayal, author of Another Green World. Do you know Lewis? Are you Lewis? Light In The Attic is holding his royalties in escrow until he makes himself known. Anyone with information on Lewis a.k.a. Randall Wulff a.k.a R.J. Duke, please email [email protected].
