CABS1CD - Nag Nag Nag/Yashar/Yashar (remix)
CABS6CD - Living Legends .

Their singles happen to be their most memorable tunes and their albums are where all their experimental stuff is kept. The period thereafter, after moving to a bigger label, saw the release of four seminal albums The Crackdown, Micro-Phonies, The Sword, the Covenant and the Arm of the Lord and Code. These are getting the reissue treatment next year and it'll be great to catch up with these.


Oh good - The Crackdown is my favourite album of theirs.

My kids school music festival this weekend!

The senior year (6th grade - 11-12yr olds) were playing track that sounded both wonderful and strangely familiar. Oh my God - I exclaim, they are playing a Grace Jones track! "I've Seen that Face Before" by Grace is actually a cover/overdub of a 1974 South American song called Libertango. I never knew that, but liked had known and liked the Grace Jones single since it was released. Seems I don't know half as much as I think - should go back to school!

I have now heard this album for the first time, treading back from late night shopping through the teeming rain, puddles full of light, having spent money I don't have in the pursuit of happiness. So far, so good.

Just had a listen to the iTunes samplers, very tempted to hit purchase, that's what I like about his thread, prompting forgotten memories and discovering new artists.
