Popis - BLORP ESETTE:
"A budget-priced four-CD of the Los Angeles Free Music Society's late-'70s/early-'80s compilation records, with almost three hours of new material, this offering amounts to a retrospective of the scraggly nascent L.A. audio art scene's skronks, bleats and scratchy loops in the studio and live at the first Doo-Dah Parade. Compiled by Ace Farren Ford and Rick Potts, "Blorp Esette" is technically a reissue, except nobody ever heard the originals and half the material is previously unreleased. Including tracks from Smegma with Wild Man Fischer, the Reverend Toad-Eater, the Doo Dooettes, Henry Kaiser, Joe Potts, the South Pasadena Free Music Ensemble and long-unavailable album art by Captain Beefheart, the collection basically lays out the parameters for what has become a burgeoning subculture of unsupervised and as yet illegitimate artistic fecundity as well as being a sound document of a specific cultural moment." In the late seventies, early eighties, the LAFMS released two volumes of "Blorp Esette". Both albums were compilations (samplers) of alternative, experimental, outsider music from and around Los Angeles-and both albums featured Don Van Vliet artwork. This sprawling and vastly extended reissue of the L.A. Free Music Society state of the union (originally issued as two separate LP's) contains a dizzying wealth of essential material for LAFMS obsessives, not least some 20+ minutes of otherwise unavailable Smegma material, along with nearly an LP's worth of work by Smegma's Ju Suk Reet Meate (whose LP from the period was just reissued on Destijl). Beyond that, I'll refrain from parsing this massive document point for point, its immense significance really speaks for itself. Apart from the assorted Van Vliet images used on the labels and covers there is also another Beefheart connection ... one of the many musicians taking part was Richard (Midnite Hatsize) Snyder, bass player and guitarist with the Magic Band. 4XCD COMES WITH 32 PAGE BOOKLET.
