Jumping Right In 2
hey.
harumi finished off nicely this evening, 3 more sides of good japanese pop/psych with the strangest lyrics to go with the 1st track of hypno-babble.
Tonight, i have finished working on a record by Them called "belfast gypsies" in which Van and the boys throw out some strong Irish garage rock. i liked it, but i wasn't inspired beyond that. It was a basic pressing on Grand Prix. seemed like a budget label, but the vinyl was nice, thick, and clean sounding. bonus.
Right now, i've got a good spin going from The Cowboys International, 1979 Virgin. called The Original Sin. nice loose late 70's psychedelic furs meets fischer-z type material. synthezisers, high toned guitars, not too heady, not too wimpy. not the strongest of its period by a longshot, but i'd listen again to see if the melodies stuck. this copy has the promo timing strip. got it from BT at the Philadelphia show. he's a good, easygoing dealer, sold it to me for 2 bucks i think. the band has 5 guys, but the one in the back has a big hairdo and a bit more eyeliner than the rest. the guy up closest must be the lead singer, he looks like Curt Smith from Tears for Fears. I'm a sucker for this type of record. never know if you're going to get a great one or a mediocre one.
on the back, they use Keith levine courtesy of Public Image Ltd. on one track's guitar parts.
i ditched a record tonight too, called Crazy Dancin' "The Bottom Line" on Greedy Records, Los Angeles. It pictures dance steps on the back cover, but doens't appear as an instructional type. it also looks like the labels first production, as its G1001., but altogether it was a wimpy disco cover band, so horrid that i don't recommend to anyone, not even fanatical deep disco dudes.
