JAZZ BUTCHER, THE
THE VIOLENT YEARS (FIRE RECORDS)
Vierfach-CD mit 20-seitigem Buch mit Hardcover. Üppiges CD-Boxset im Bücherlook, das vier Alben aus den Jahren bei Creation Records von THE JAZZ BUTCHER zwischen 1988 und 1991 zusammenstellt.
Mit den hochgelobten ,Fishcotheque", ,Big Planet, Scarey Planet", ,Cult Of The Basement" und ,Condition Blue".
Eine Soundreise, die die Entwicklung von THE JAZZ BUTCHER vom Rock'n'Roll-Visionär bis zum Vertreter des schmalen, jazzigen Pops nachzeichnet.
Die Sammlung unterstreicht die smarten Texte, die geistreichen Sprüche, die Melancholie, die Ironie und die Konzepte von Pat Fisch, die auf den ersten vier Alben für Glass Records (die 2017 als ,The Wasted Years"-Kollektion auf Fire Records erschien) zur Reife gelangen sollten.
Die Presse seinerzeit feierte. "Punning, clever displays of hurt and revulsion." - Select // "That rare beast, an LP of cool, laid back pop." - Record Mirror // "A vicious mismatch of outrage, black humour and sentiment." - Sounds // "If it emanated from a more in-vogue source, would currently be having its maverick genius analysed to death." - Melody Maker [ENG] 4 x CD with 20 page hard back book.
Expansive book-styled package of the first four albums from The Jazz Butcher's early Creation Records' years - 1988-1991.
Featuring the much praised "Fishcotheque", "Big Planet, Scarey Planet", "Cult Of The Basement" and "Condition Blue".
A sonic journey that takes The Jazz Butcher from a Weather Prophets-propelled rock ' roll visionary through to a lean jazz-tinged pop exponent.
Underlining the clever lyrics, witticisms, one-liners, melancholy, irony and conceptualisation of main man Pat Fish that came to maturity across his previous four albums for Glass (collected on Fire Records 2017 as "The Wasted Years").
