(1 Customer Review)
THE SECOND COMING includes the LP THEY'RE COMING TO TAKE ME AWAY in its entirety, three tracks from a lost follow-up album, as well as recent recordings.
The CD reissue of Napoleon XIV's The Second Coming contains the entirety of his 1966 album They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa! with a few cuts from his unreleased second LP, "For God's Sake, Stop the Feces!" (1968), and some new recordings from 1995. Even novelty fans may find the material too silly and unvarying, despite occasional highlights (such as they are) like "I Live in a Split-Level Head." From the available evidence, "For God's Sake, Stop the Feces!" is not an unreleased masterpiece on the order of the Beach Boys' (until recently released) SMiLE; the 1995 cuts are more conventional (and cornball) satire, with singing and piano. Fear not: the B-side of "They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!," the unforgettable "!aaah-aH, yawA eM ekaT ot gnimoC er'yehT" (try saying that three times fast), is included as an unlisted bonus track. ~ Richie Unterberger

| | Genya Ravan ...And I Mean It! CD (1979)
Second Coming album
$15.65 ...And I Mean It is an amalgam of girl group, new wave, blues, pop and folk/rock by Genya Ravan. To hear her exquisite voice on Night Owl soaring above her own backing vocals is intense, imagine Etta James backed by The Sex Pistols doing a rock version of Earth Angel. Of all Genya Ravan's work, ...And I Mean It is possibly the most concise and picture perfect statement of what the woman is musically about. A girl group pioneer who worked with Richard Perry prior to his finding The Pointer Sisters groove, there is no doubt Ravan influenced that major producer, and his work did the same for her. Pedal To The Medal is high - end treble rock before it came into vogue. This is the other side of Siren, the album Genya produced for Ronnie Spector, with more emphasis on a good-time rocking party. I'm Wired, Wired, Wired is a rock & roll anthem for people who burn the candle at both ends, while I Won't Sleep On The Wet Spot embodies the unbridled sexuality of this album. The music crunches while Ravan uses her voice, her production skills, and her legacy to create something far removed from her days in Ten Wheel Drive. The horns are replaced by searing guitars and Charlie Giordano's magical piano work. The sound of the keyboard and its erratic splashes really are key to I Won't Sleep On The Wet Spot, while the guitar and bass battle it out. Steve..., on the other hand, is Goldie & The Gingerbreads ten years after. This Genya Ravan/Conrad Taylor composition was the 45 from the album, and it has hit written all over it. 20th Century just didn't have the right mechanisms in place to get some of the great music they put out on radio, such a pity as Harriet Schock, Randy Edelman and the fake soundtrack for All This And World War II (a Beatles tribute album) contained songs that should have been big hits. What did hit off this album, on FM radio as an album track, is the brilliant duet by Ian Hunter and Genya Ravan, the subtle and folky Junkman. Released on Hunter's excellent Once Bitten Twice Shy CD on Legacy in 2000, the song and performance is timeless. Ravan once told this writer "I was asleep with the tv on, and was ...
