| | Jack Smith Les Evening Gowns Damnees: 56 Ludlow Street 1962-1964 Vol. 1 CD Jack Smith Discography of CDs
Once upon a time in New York, with nothing more than wild fantasies spun off from the legend of B-movie actress Maria Montez for inspiration, the late underground film-maker Jack Smith and his friends started an aesthetic revolution. Luckily, ... Full Descriptionthe electric violinist/early minimalist Tony Conrad was there at the apartment on Ludlow Street to capture it all on tape.
A screaming excerpt from Conrad's innovative soundtrack to Smith's notorious 1963 film FLAMING CREATURES--the infamous "earthquake orgy" scene--sets the mood. In his unique piping drawl, Smith reads, improvises and giddily free-associates routines involving him and/or his "best friend" Frances Francine, a middle-aged drag queen whose last chance to wear an expensive evening gown inspires the long, poignant narrative that closes the disc. Throughout, Conrad, John Cale and original Velvet Underground drummer Angus Maclise provide suitably exotic musical accompaniment.
Recorded at 56 Ludlow St., New York, New York between 1962 and 1964.
Personnel: Jack Smith (spoken vocals, finger cymbals, drum); Tony Conrad (lute guitar, mandola, bowed cembalom); Angus Maclise (bowed mandola); John Cale (sarinda).

$19.34   
Special Edition CD includes the full album, a CD of instrumental mixes of the album and a CD of six cover songs.
Dream Theater's tenth long-player is about as dense and challenging as any album in the band's discography and emphasizes not only the virtuoso members' stupefying musicianship, but also their most aggressive and thoroughly metallic songwriting tendencies. The sixteen-minute opener "A Nightmare to Remember" quickly establishes this agenda via frequently thrash-paced staccato riffing, some of John Petrucci's most blistering guitar solos ever, and ...
