Temporary Music 1 and 2 - some great bass playing - ethnological african/Asian music(s) with a funk-punk energy and atmospheric cinematic quality. Seven Songs has William Burroughs reading on it. regards Aether
Blimey you've had an interesting week (Stomu, Wigwam, Material AND Human League!?) I do indeed know the Temporary Music music. I love that end of post punk where a band could sound like 23 Skidoo one minutes and produce records like "Over and Over" and "Bustin Out" the next. And what bass lines! Speaking of Material there is a really good new Nona Hendryx album out with the killer version of "Strange Fruit" that she sung live with Hal Willner at the RFH the other Sunday.
