ha ha. I somehow totally forgot that they'd made two more LPs. And you inverted my score ratio amongst the first three. I listened FUN HOUSE again last night. I do think the first side is stronger than the second. But at any rate I think s/t beats it for sound and electrical energy. s/t has become one of my most played rock albums of the moment.
Fun House is probably my favorite rock album, so I can't really discuss it sensibly. But the debut is stunning too. Most people jump on to criticise We Will Fall, but it's an important part of their...story, and it has John Cale on viola.
Pere Ubu – first incarnation. LPs rated. Modern Dance - 240 volts of potential difference Dub Housing - $500 a month with $1000 deposit, unfurnished. A drunken sailor. New Picnic Time - 3 sausages, 2 egg sandwiches, assorted pickles, sliced cucumber, a can of lemonade, cake, mint tea, 93 ants. Sand. The Sea. Art of Walking - 23 goats, 12 sparrows and a bunch of snowy-white horses. A telephone. Song of The Bailing Man - 1 cow pat, a barn and some hay.
I love that track. When the LP or CD is well mastered – hairs on reverse of neck, stand-up. Including it was a brilliant move and kudos to Cale for getting that whole album, those songs and performances down so well.
