About this product

For about a decade now, Dirtbombs frontman Mick Collins has threatened that the band-s next would be their bubblegum album. After a couple of records of mostly originals, a compilation of singles and an album of Detroit techno covers, one might have suspected that the concept either fell by the wayside or was a farce to begin with. Well, at long last, here is OOEY GOOEY CHEWY KA-BLOOEY. Mick Collins wrote ten new tracks which pay homage to the sound and style originally popularized in the late 60s / early 70s by producers / exploiters like Kasenetz-Katz and Don Kirschner. While the usual Dirtbombs double-drums, fuzzy guitars and soulful swagger are present, OOEY GOOEY is sugary, sunshiny pop rock that recalls Josie & The Pussycats, the Banana Splits and Lancelot Link & The Evolution Revolution, to name but three.

The Dirtbombs - Party Store   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2011 from the Detroit Garage rockers. Nearly 10 years after their critically-acclaimed album Ultraglide in Black helped kick-start a renewed interest in all things Detroit and Rock 'n' Roll, The Dirtbombs this de facto companion piece. Where Ultraglide was a covers collection of '60s and '70s Soul gems, Party Store is an assortment of live-band interpretations of classic Detroit Techno music of the '80s and early '90s. The subject matter runs the gamut from materialistic future-disco braggadocio (InchSharevari,Inch originally by a Number of Names) to cold, post-industrial isolation (InchAlleys of Your Mind,Inch originally by Cybotron) through the instrumental optimism of a worldwide house classic (InchStrings of Life,Inch originally by Derrick May). All these themes encapsulate the climate of Detroit both now and at the time of their initial . Let it be said clearly this record addresses both the past and the future of Detroit.

Berliner Barocksolisten - La Cremona - Concerti Per 3 & 4 Violini   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

La Cremona / Italian Concertos - The Italians are uninhibited composers, brilliant, vivacious, expressive, profound, noble in thought, slightly eccentric, free, dashing, brazen, overblown, at times negligent in tempo; but they are also lyrical, cajoling, tender, touching and inventive. They write more for connoisseurs than for music lovers.' (Johann Georg Pisendel) The violin - that most versatile instrument which right up until the 1950s reigned supreme over European music, most notably in orchestras - was developed between 1500 and 1550 in workshops of luthiers around the three north Italian towns of Mantua, Brescia and Cremona. It was the outcome of solid craftsmanship and astute understanding of the physical possibilities.

Crispy Ambulance - Scissorgun   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Former Factory Records band Crispy Ambulance have recorded a superb album of all-new material titled Scissorgun. The ten tracks were recorded in with producer Graham Massey a long-term band associate whose previous credits include 808 State Bjork Blue Pearl & Biting Tongues. Throughout their short recording career Manchester band Crispy Ambulance were unjustly dismissed as sub-standard Joy Division plagiarists notable only as proof that Factory was as fallible as any other tag.
