of the 1975 6-track vinyl LP, this is one of the great albums of
jazz/rock experimentation. Fred Frith's guitar is challenging and
thrilling & Dagmar Krause's vocals complement the music
beautifully.As the quote on the album states; "Art is not a mirror, it is
a hammer". Get this and open your ears. At a time when music was
either bland and poppy or overburdened with stadium sized pretention
this is uncompromising andtough minded. The addition of Slapp Happy
to the mix adds a dimension that made this album stand out from the
other 'sock' albums and proved a precursor for what was to follow
with Desperate Straights, front laminated picture sleeve. The sleeve is
still in its opened shrinkwrap and the vinyl has little sign of play
