TORI KUDO / LA CONSUMPTION 4

'Atlantic City' LP
SA5002

Archive LP of material recorded by Tori Kudo and some fellow travellers during a stay in New York in the Summer of 1981. Originally released on cassette the approach on these recordings was a long way from the creepy organ driven "Noise Tenno" LP that Tori and Reiko released a year earlier. About half of 'Atlantic City' consists of songs, teeth bared and falling apart as they come together but still in a style similar to Tori's subsequent work with Maher Shalal Hash Baz. The other half is made up mostly of extended guitar jams nodding equally to rock and blues but retaining Tori's rather unique take on the idioms. Cover and insert art on the LP is adapted from drawings drawn and photos taken in NY and Atlantic City in 1981.
