An essential addition to the Pere Ubu canon, TERMINAL TOWER is a 1985 archival release compiling all the band's early singles (as released on their own Hearthen label in the mid-'70s) prior to their first LP, 1977's THE MODERN DANCE, plus a handful of live and alternate takes. Even more than that first LP, whose title track is here in an untitled early version, these songs are startlingly powerful and utterly unique.
In particular, the six-minute "Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo" is a proto-punk masterpiece, a rising tide of tension that doesn't quite get to explode before it's stopped dead. The live "Humor Me" was recorded shortly after the death of founding member Peter Laughner, who wrote the song, and the cathartic intensity of this version is astonishing. The 11 songs on this album are all also available in the Pere Ubu box set DATAPANIK IN THE YEAR ZERO.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.

Terminal Tower: An Archival Collection, Non-LP Singles & B Sides 1975-1980 album
$15.15 Though not a young man at age 30 when these sessions were recorded, Russian born trumpeter Vitaly Golovnev makes his recording debut with a quintet of New York City peers that sound far more advanced than their ages. Steeped in the soul of '50s and '60s hard bop, this quintet firmly swings the music courtesy of drummer Jason Brown, pays homage to their elders, and makes fresh modern jazz without playing it totally straight or acting as students copping heads of any well-worn standards whatsoever. Golovnev himself has certainly heard his share of Lee Morgan, Donald Byrd, and Freddie Hubbard, but claims influence via the short-lived innovator Booker Little. This element of his playing suggests a more progressive, angular and daring feel to this music. Tenor saxophonist Jake Saslow is his front line foil, not quite yet an individualist, but a solid and supple player with tons of upside. The surprise is pianist Miki Hayama, an exciting new player on the scene who sounds quite well-rounded and expressive, while veteran bassist Boris Koslov, on loan from the Mingus Big Band, needs no introduction as one of the premier players on his instrument in contemporary jazz. Though Golovnev composed all of these tracks, Hayama should claim credit for shaping and crafting complicated heads like "Whose Shoes?" and "Miki's Trick," both featuring quirky angular lines à la Thelonious Monk or Ornette Coleman in neo-bop trim, straight-ahead and animated, clean, but requiring your rapt attention. ...
