Short Stories $17.99 Jon Anderson’s first project following his departure from Yes was to reunite with the equally airy Vangelis for a collaborative effort as Jon and Vangelis. Short Stories actually marks their second collaboration — the first took place on Vangelis’ 1975 album, Heaven and Hell, with the track “So Long Ago, So Clear.” The pair returns to that song’s successful formula of combining Anderson’s otherworldly voice with Vangelis’ pithy melodies in a few spots on their debut together, notably for the popular single “I Hear You Now” (which recalls Vangelis’ “To the Unknown Man”) and the middle section of “Far Away in Bagaad.” Otherwise, Short Stories favors amorphous arrangements that feature wisps of melody and little more (a style that has its precedent on Yes’ Tormato rather than their own solo work to date). The effect can be, frankly, underwhelming — “Curious Electric” and “Each and Everyday,” for example, seem content to settle for the happy accidents of collaboration rather than fusing their individual sounds into a cohesive whole. Despite a handful of nearly memorable moments, including the playful “Thunder” and the charming “Love Is/One More Time,” the pair would have had more success sticking to their established idioms — after all, China and Olias of Sunhillow were good albums — rather than trying to meet in some equidistant, ethereal plane. Given the record’s paper-thin arrangements, an appreciation for the music of Vangelis and Jon Anderson is no guarantee that Short Stories will please. ~ Dave Connolly, All Music GuidePerformers: Jon Anderson – Vocals; Raphael Preston – Guitar (Acoustic); Vangelis – Keyboards, Multi Instruments, Synthesizer

Love: Short Stories $8.96 This compelling and haunting collection of short fiction exposes issues of longing, obsession, and loss that undercut the perceptions of conventional romance and relationships between both lovers and strangers. Flailing characters reach desperately for each other and never quite connect; others reveal unmasked glimpses of themselves to total strangers in brief, everyday interactions. In the title story, the small act of an unlikely character exposes an unexpected dimension of love. In Surface Calm, a wife, bored with her everyday routines, is driven by loneliness to inflict pain on herself when her husband leaves on a business trip. Other stories in the collection explore similar juxtapositions of passion, horror, and spiritual transcendance.

Target $11.98 Target is one of those Tom Scott records that gets forgotten about a lot. Certainly it comes from the middle of the 1980s just before the GRP era, when Scott was still leading the Saturday Night Live Band on occasion and looking around for a new sound. It’s the sound of a restless musician who gets the pop game, or at least has gotten it and is not sure of where to shift his focus next. The band is big and full of killer players: Harvey Mason, Ernie Watts, Ian Underwood, Victor Feldman, Paul Jackson, Neil Stubenhaus, Jim Horn, Trevor Feldman, Pete Christlieb, and Michael Boddicker, among others. The sound is a tad warmer than what Atlantic was releasing at the time, too. But the material, as good as some of it is — like the funky title track — also contains half-hearted pop ballads like “Come Back to Me” with Kenny James on vocals. “He’s Too Young,” with a fine vocal performance by Maria Muldaur, is marred by a terribly dated — and it was for the time — synth drum sound. There is also a truly bizarre moment when Lee Ving, former lead singer of Los Angeles hardcore band Fear raps and plays blues harmonica on “Gotta Get out of New York.” Then there’s “Lollipoppin’” which, while it contains the same dumb synth drum sound, also has some killer Rhodes by Feldman, synth work by Underwood, and a happening keyboard bassline. The grooving muted horn section on this reading of Dan Peck’s “The Biggest Part of Me,” has a wonderfully soulful feel with great kit work by Mason. The horn arrangements are in the pocket but restrained, allowing that lithe melody to shine through and, along with the title cut, it’s a contender for best tune on the set. The set closes with the stone-gone funky groover “Burundi Bump” by Scott and Feldman with excellent basslines, pulsing Rhodes work, a boatload of percussion, and Mason running the ensemble from his kit; the entire tune is rhythm based. So Target is, ultimately, a mixed bag, a hold-over record that was throwing everything at the wall to see what worked. Interestingly, what did was the basis for Scott’s sound at GRP. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music GuidePerformers: Tom Scott – Lyricon, Sax (Soprano), Sax (Tenor), Saxophone, Synthesizer, Wind; Judi Brown – Vocals (Background); Trevor Feldman – Fender Rhodes, Keyboards; Victor Feldman – Fender Rhodes, Keyboards, Percussion, Piano, Synthesizer; Jerry Hey – Flugelhorn, Horn, Trumpet;

The Future Is Unknown $11.94 As is perhaps appropriate for an act called Unknown Hinson (“Named after his father…on his birth certificate: Mama — Miss Hinson, Daddy — Unknown”), the press biography is pure fiction, while the press photo depicts a person who appears to be a cross between a 1950s country & western star and a vampire. Indeed, Hinson makes that combination explicit in “I Make Faces (When I Make Love),” pronouncing Dracula “Drackler,” and singing, “Belly Lugosi and Boris and Lon/Made women scream when they come on/I tell you right where they went wrong/They couldn’t sing a country western song.” Unknown Hinson can, however, if in an exaggerated manner. In his fruity accent, “women” comes out “wuhmerns.” But, of course, this is country comedy music, full of vulgar references to sexual relations (albeit without obscenities), as Hinson sings about inflatable dolls (“Polly Urethane”), “Lingerie,” homosexuality (“Your Man…”), and sex-change operations (“Man to Man”). Now and then, he moves from twangy country to rock rhythms and screaming guitar solos, if only to send up rock culture (“Hippie Girl,” “Rock ‘n Roll Is Straight From Hell”). It’s all in fun, and there are some excellent candidates for the Dr. Demento radio show, even if this isn’t the most original comedy around. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music GuidePerformers: Unknown Hinson – Vocals

Blank Generation $11.98 Richard Hell was one of the first men on the scene when punk rock first began to emerge in New York City as an early member of both Television and the Heartbreakers (he left both groups before they could record), but his own version of punk wasn’t much like anyone else’s, and while Hell’s debut album, Blank Generation, remains one of the most powerful to come from punk’s first wave, anyone expecting a Ramones/Dead Boys-style frontal assault from this set had better readjust their expectations. “Love Comes in Spurts” and “Liar’s Beware” proved the Voidoids could play fast and loud when they wanted to, but for the most part this group’s formula was much more complicated than that; guitarists Robert Quine and Ivan Julian bounced sharp, edgy patterns off each other that were more about psychological tension than brute force (though Quine’s solos suggest a fragile grace beneath the surface of their neo-Beefheart chaos), and while most punk nihilism was of the simplistic “Everything Sucks” variety, Hell was (with the exception of Patti Smith) the most literate and consciously poetic figure in the New York punk scene. While there’s little on the album that’s friendly or life-affirming, there’s a crackling intelligence to songs like “New Pleasure,” “Betrayal Takes Two,” and “Another World” that confirmed Hell has a truly unique lyrical voice, at once supremely self-confident and dismissive of nearly everything around him (sometimes including himself). Brittle and troubling, but brimming with ideas and musical intelligence, Blank Generation was groundbreaking punk rock that followed no one’s template, and today it sounds just as fresh — and nearly as abrasive — as it did when it first hit the racks. ~ Mark Deming, All Music GuidePerformers: Marc Bell – Drums; Richard Hell – Bass, Vocals; Ivan Julian – Guitar, Vocals (Background); Robert Quine – Guitar, Vocals (Background)

The Unknown Kid $24.19 The Unknown Kidbrbr It is the year 2068 and the world is in chaos. The mafia’s and groups of crime joined together and broke into the prisons all over the world. They had decided that they were ready to take over. Unfortunately for them, they were not very good at working together. They managed to break out the prisons, but they fell apart with disagreements before they could take down the major governments. After the world wide break-out, security was tightened and it was almost impossible to go anywhere with a governmental or political look to it. Politicians practically lived in the buildings they worked in because it was too dangerous for them to go outside. Crime was everywhere; gangs would roam the streets at night looking for innocent victims. The police could do nothing about it since they were stretched to their limit just trying to protect the politicians themselves, schools, and any buildings that were venerable or desperately needed protecting. The army were doing major jobs such as stopping major criminals and figureheads entering the country and illegal immigrants with ideas of helping out with the bad guys. No one was safe. brbr About the Authorbrbr Michael Pomeroy is 14 years old and was born and raised in Reading, Berkshire, where he currently resides.
