Second solo album from Buzzcocks singer/songwriter. Combining electronics and Shelley's signature guitar sound, this sophomore release was produced by Martin Rushent (Human League/Stranglers/Buzzcocks). While not as successful as his debut album, "Homosapien", this album did include radio favorites such as "Telephone Operator" and "I Just Wanna Touch". This CD remaster features two extended dub mixes as bonus tracks. Varep. 2006. XL-1 Review

XL-1
 $14.55 
Subtitled UNFINISHED MUSIC NO. 1, this was the first of a series of recordings that were released near the beginning of John Lennon and Yoko Ono's relationship. Ono, a member of the Fluxus art movement, was a respected artist and had been producing pieces in non-traditional media (sound, video, conceptual) throughout the '60s--in fact she met Lennon when he came to one of her gallery exhibitions. With the Beatles in often-fractious circumstances at that time, Lennon poured his energies into collaborations with her.
The two long pieces which comprise the bulk of this CD were originally a side each of a vinyl record (the bonus track, a lovely song called "Remember Love," was the B-side to their "Give Peace a Chance" single). They're both sound collages which incorporate found sounds, bits of other recordings, some keyboards and other instruments, as well as Lennon and Ono variously talking and vocalizing. This was the public's first glimpse of Yoko's particular style of singing ...

| | Faces Nod Is As Good As A Wink... To A Blind Horse CD (1971)
XL-1
$6.45   
When this was released in 1971, the Faces also released LONG PLAYER (following the dropping of "Small" from the band's name) and frontman Rod Stewart released the seminal EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY. The three-album output was especially remarkable for the Faces, as the band was more known for skirt-chasing and carousing than recording music. NOD found the Faces fusing together a grittier blues and soul sound than on past efforts, which were marked by a rather modish sound and Stewart's then-folkier leanings.
The group includes enough heartfelt ruminations to add a sentimental edge to the otherwise rip-roaring mix of material. Among the latter class of songs are a shambling cover of Chuck Berry's "Memphis, Tennessee" and "Stay With Me," the Faces' only hit and the quintessential groupie kiss-off. Stewart's talents as a balladeer are no less effective, with songs like the poignant "Love Lives Here" and the Ronnie Lane-penned duet "Debris," an unheralded classic every bit as emotionally devastating as "Wild Horses." Lane's singing and songwriting also shine on ...

| | Gary Numan Jagged CD (2006)
XL-1
$12.95 
On 2006's JAGGED, influential synth-pop artist Gary Numan is firmly entrenched in the dark side. This ominous studio outing finds the British singer/multi-instrumentalist focused on atmosphere more than catchy hooks (a la his lone hit "Cars"), seemingly picking up where David Bowie left off on 1995's OUTSIDE (minus that disc's busy narrative conceit). Numan is clearly committed to weighty industrial arrangements on this album, as best evidenced on the heavy, brooding "Halo," which washes listeners in a wave of distorted guitar lines and pounding rhythms. Perhaps more ...

The music emulating from in and around Bristol in the southwest of England during the late '70s and early '80s remains today as some of the most innovative and important from that era. Many of the creators of these sounds went on to do things internationally, though it's the origins that this release is concerned with. Heartbeat Records managed to capture most of this through a series of now highly acclaimed 7 inch singles. 2 CD set with a booklet telling the story of how twenty bands and one label took a slice of time and made a piece of history. Cherry Red. 2005.
