(1 Customer Review)
NYC's post-disco noise rock dance band Konk gets their selves collected on this import from Soul Jazz records; tracks include "Konk Party" and "Your Life" plus several remixes.
Konk were first featured on Soul Jazz Records' earlier New York Noise alongside Arthur Russell, ESG and Liquid Liquid. Konk were formed in New York in 1980. They played an important part in the link between New York's Disco scene (Paradise Garage/Loft/Gallery etc) and the New York No Wave/Post-Punk scene (Liquid Liquid, ESG, James White etc). This 2004 compilation makes available Konk's left-field disco classics (many for the first time in twenty years!). The album features 11 tracks including 2 bonus tracks, a DJ Mix of 'Konk Party' & 'Baby Dee' (live) plus extensive sleeve notes, interviews and photographs. Slipcase.

Sound Of Konk album
$9.79 Although not quite as stellar as its predecessor, 1979's 'DUTY NOW FOR THE FUTURE' is a solid second release by those loveable spuds from Ohio. With hindsight, DUTY helped bridge the gap between the quirky weirdness of their debut and their more accessible third album, FREEDOM OF CHOICE, which would prove to be their breakthrough commercial success (achieving gold status and spawning the classic new wave hit "Whip It"). Replacing Brian Eno as producer is another Bowie disciple, Ken Scott (ZIGGY STARDUST, HUNKY ...

Sound Of Konk CD music
$14.49 Finally unleashed for the length of a full album, Murphy's muse still offers up plenty of John-Foxx-will-rise-again retro synth sounds, but he expands his palette as well. The irresistibly catchy "Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" is a funky, riff-driven party-starter that compares favorably to vintage Beck, and "On Repeat" indicates a fascination with the lyrical cadences of the Fall's Mark E. Smith. Moving further back in time to the art-rock era, "Never as Tired as When I'm Waking Up" is a dreamy tune that could have slipped unnoticed off Pink Floyd's MEDDLE, and "Great Release" is an unabashed, slow-building Eno homage. To keep the club kids happy, a ...

$9.99 On its 2006 album, RETURN TO COOKIE MOUNTAIN, the Brooklyn-based post-punk group TV on the Radio manages that rare feat of becoming more adventurous and accessible at the same time. While this record isn't a major departure from its eclectic predecessor (the lauded DESPERATE YOUTH, BLOODY THIRSTY BABES), it is notably ...

| | Tony Bennett Who Can I Turn To CD (1964)
Sound Of Konk songs
$6.05 This is part of Columbia Records' Tony Bennett Master series.
1964's follow-up to the seminal I WANNA BE AROUND, WHO CAN I TURN TO continues the established Bennett tradition of mixing a few choice standards with some little-known songs to delight the cogniscenti plus a show-stopping hit to tie it all together. Deliciously medium-slow versions of "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams" and "Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea" fill the the first category easily. Then there are songs like Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh's "I Walk A Little Faster," Fran Landesman and Tommy Wolfæs "Listen, Little Girl," the debut of Bill Evans' "Waltz For Debby" with Gene Lees' lyrics, an excerpt from Mel Torme's CALIFORNIA SUITE--all these serve to mark this release as an unusual one in the Bennett canon. You know the singer agrees, since this is another in the Tony Bennett Master Series hand-picked by Bennett himself.
Recorded at CBS 30th Street Studios, New York between August and October 1964. Originally released as Columbia Records (CL 2285). Includes original release liner notes by Richard Maltby, Jr.
Reissue producer: Didier C. Deutsch.
Personnel: Tony Bennett (vocals); George Siravo (conductor); Mundell Lowe, Al Caiola, Wally Richardson (guitar); Gene ...
| | Amon Tobin Recorded Live: Solid Steel Presents CD (2004)
Sound Of Konk album
$12.09 Leave it to Ninja Tune. Just as the volumes of their radio-session mix series Solid Steel began gaining enough steam to qualify as essential items for breakbeat fans (alongside headphones and an appropriate media player), they had to ruin it by stooping to a live album. Fans of bedroom boffinry had long looked to Solid Steel -- both the long-running show and the mix series -- for the best collections of rare grooves and samples, most of them honed to perfection prior to broadcast and release. But surprisingly enough, Amon Tobin, separated from the cozy confines of his studio and stranded in the middle of hundreds of rabid Australians, still managed to acquit himself quite nicely. This didn't happen entirely because of his turntable skills, though. Tobin utilized Final Scratch technology, which, roughly speaking, ...
