| 2008 release ; cd of mark tuckers 1982 second album (after 1975s batstew ; also reissued by de stijl) ...
starts out with a pair of piano-based songs, rather straightforward ... but then by everywhere with sally s backwards-masked vocals, & the zonked poetry & electronic-sound strangeness of the down the pipeline / the importance of making molehills out of specks one-two punch, things begin to get a bit more wooly ...
personally i think the mix of am radio gold and outsider-spec moments is inspiring (see: peter grudzien, bobb trimble, et.al) ; definitely worth your time if youre a fan of said ... |

in the sack
ind 061 cd
mark tucker (born 1957-10-11 in laurel, maryland, and who legally changed his name in 1991 to t. storm hunter) is a musician, and co-founder of tetrapod spools.
his debut album, batstew, which is now collectible, was released in two runs, each of 100 copies. there was also one personalized edition for his girlfriend of the time, eva bataszew, whose title was bataszew. the album was re-released in 1996 as a compact disc, with extra tracks that never made it onto the original lp. it comprises, amongst other things, recordings of tucker's car, a 1964 cadillac which he had nicknamed "the bat".
after a couple of mental breakdowns, tucker recorded his second album, in the sack, in 1982, under the pseudonym "t. storm hunter" which he later adopted as his legal name. the music was largely experimental, with tracks including "everywhere with sally (ride)", a pop song recorded backwards.
a great and much underrated (due to batstew and it's limited release) weird record combining electronic sounds, jazzy piano, noises of found objects, whispers, screams and poetry from a "damaged" brain.
brilliant!!! |
