Branca, Glenn - Songs '77 - '79
SKU
21-ALP 43
"The Release Of The Recordings Of Glenn's Late '70's No Wave Bands Is Finally A Reality... And More Comprehensive Than Expected.
These Tracks Are The Earliest Emanations Of Rock Publicly Delivered By The Man Called Branca, Thoroughly Foreshadowing The Vast
Domain Of Post-Modern Rock In More Ways Than You'd Expect. All The Proper Studio Recordings From Both Singles By The Static & Theoretical Girls Are Here, Plus Outrageous & Inspired Home Cassette Recordings.
The Static Were A Stripped-Down, Pummeling Drone Machine Featuring Glenn & Photographer Extraordinare Barbara Ess. This Trio Meant Business In The Late '70's Nyc Art-Music Scene And Drew Big In The Big Apple, Influencing Legions Of Lower East Side Guitar Assassins. The T-Girls Were Even More Popular, A Creative Knock-Down-Drag-Out Between Glenn & Composer Jeffrey Lohn, With One Wharton Tiers On Drums. Like-Minded Peers Of Mars, Teenage Jesus & DNA (From The No New York Record), The T-Girls Career Was Short & Sweet: They Only Played Out 20 Times.
Songs '77-'79 Is A Must For Any Branca Zealot, Many Sonic Youth Fans, And For Those Curious About The Missing Links Between The Halcyon No Wave Era & The Dawn Of The '80's "Downtown" NYC Scene."
