LIQUID IDIOT/IDIOT ORCHES - VINYL LIQUID IDIOT/IDIOT.. [VINYL]

Popis - LIQUID IDIOT/IDIOT.. [VINYL]:
Prior to forming Liquid Liquid in 1981, the band members were in two other groups: Liquid Idiot and Idiot Orchestra. While these ensembles sounded more experimental than groove-oriented, the beginnings of Liquid Liquids spatial/conceptual framework can be heard here. Liquid Idiot started at Rutgers University in the late '70s and soon relocated to NYC where the band performed at various lofts and clubs including Tier 3, Mudd Club and CBGB. Idiot Orchestra was an offshoot that included a dozen or more players (clarinet, sax, trumpet, violin, cello, synth, bass, marimba and drums) resembling a no wave version of Raymond Scott's big band. This split archival LP collects two rare 7-inches from 1978 and 1980, both of which were originally pressed in hyper-limited editions and self-released by the bands. The package also features a fanzine of ephemera, rare photos and an interview with McGuire.
