It's basically pop songs, not unlike Slapp Happy, with backing by Faust, so there's enough noise and abrasion to satisfy. <I>World Service</I> was kind of the same, but not so catchy tunes and without Faust, so more pedestrian. <I>Secrets of the Blue Bag</I> on the other hand, is more of that process music stuff of the early 70s, with an obnoxiousness factor somewhere between the endless silverware drawer clatter of <I>Reed, Whistle, and Sticks</I> and the droning chanting (think wordless "We Will Fall") of <I>Pieces From the Cloudland Ballroom</I>. This is more like more minimal Michael Nyman -- down to pure process. Anyway, this was all well before Mo(o)re started co-writing material with the Watered-down post-1987 Pink Floyd . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6910067.post-1145495478447014352006-04-19T21:11:00.000-04:002006-04-19T21:11:00.000-04:00Silver Spring as the hippie boho body piercing cap...Silver Spring as the hippie boho body piercing capital of Ohio?

I mean, I hear a lotta Theoretical Girls-styled no wave, early EPI-period Velvet Underground and late-seventies Max's Kansas City-bred stylings as well. In many ways they were a time-warped group with a late-seventies underground attitude on the cusp of a radically different movement.Christopher Stiglianohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17107248034597839482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6910067.post-1145305206110633482006-04-17T16:20:00.000-04:002006-04-17T16:20:00.000-04:00Mister G, I'm way ahead of you regarding the Thoma...Mister G, I'm <EM>way ahead of you</EM> regarding the Thomas/Human Arts Ensemble disque...in fact I pulled it outta my collection only last night while on a search for some hot jazz/funk sides!
