Acnalbasac Noom
(ReR Megacorp - RERSHCD) Used CD $10.00
A reissue of the original Polydor 1973 sessions (not the re-recorded version released by Virgin in ’74). “The group’s songwriting are improved since their debut,” according to All Music Guide, “And Dagmar Krause’s German chanteuse-influenced vocals find catchier, more rock-oriented settings. The lyrics are witty and oddball without being pretentious. Tracks like ‘Mr. Rainbow’ recall Yoko Ono’s early-’70s song-oriented material…. ‘The Secret,” with its almost girl-group-worthy catchiness, and “Charlie ’n’ Charlie,” with its nifty surfish guitar riff, even sound like potential commercial singles. The four bonus tracks include the delightful 1982 single ‘Everybody’s Slimmin’.” Sealed with small promo drill hole
