Release Notes:
A few years back, former Quiet Sun / Roxy Music /
801 behind-the-scenes mastermind Gill Manzanera--no
relation to guitarist Phil Manzanera (whose real name
is Philip Targett-Adams)--offered up a beguiling
reminiscence of those heady days to the Swiss fanzine
Sombre Reptiles:
"What we were trying to do, you see, was harness the future
into the present. However, we were severely at odds with
technology, a ring modulator on a Fender Rhodes and a bit
of funny business through an analog synth being about as far
as one could go then. The work with Quiet Sun was the foundation,
then later Phil and Eno built upon that within Roxy and if only
Ferry had acquiesced to Brian having a go at 'Bogus Man,' I think
the results would have been stunning (as well as longer-lasting).
But alas, so then for 801, the decision was to incorporate the
progressive and avant garde through a chamber of fusion (so to
speak), the results of which are undeniable. Mind you, this was
all during the burgeoning punk era, so it took a bit of time for
some to settle in with what was happening. But isn't that the future,
really; someone has to be the first out the door to know if
the rest of us will need a jumper or not. It was all quite
brilliant in that way, absolutely so, I should think."
Hmm, well, that all sounds... quite English. Oddly enough,
that sliver of quinine-sotted nostalgia could be used as a swab
of historical DNA pap to describe the fantastic newest shimmer
from Blues Control. While past releases have been beauteous
extrapolations into the miasmic core of psychedelia and billowing
fog of ambient space, Local Flavor is the one where all the
chickens have come home to roost.
The opening track "Good Morning" is practically a sideways step
into boogie rock (horn accompaniment provided by none other than
Jesse Trbovich and Kurt Vile); with the proper seismic shift, it
could almost be heard as an alternate reality take on "Re-make/
Re-model." It's easily the band's longest stomp in the forest of
rock since their debut cassette, and, man, them boots leave a b
ruise!
The remaining three tracks morph and ebb harmoniously--in true
Blues Control fashion--the timbre occasionally elegiac, yet more
often riffing on a plane that has yet to be transcribed. Local Flavor
is 801 plus an extra one (8101, if you will), providing an unimaginable
future that will take your breath away. So make sure you've paid your
oxygen bill, because there are no free rides in the 82nd Century.
