Free Music Notes for Dirk Wears White Sox

Free Music Review: Adam Ant--Punk Style
Hit: 5 Stars

I have been a fan of Adam Ant since 1980. I saw the Jolly Roger video on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert, in the middle of the night, on a snowy TV. It was love at first sight!

Although the Kings of the Wild Frontier LP is what reeled me in, Dirk Wears White Sox is closer to the bone...Adam's original sound. I think of the two LPs as two personalities. After Prince Charming, his sound changed even more so. Friend or Foe was great in its own way, but was a departure from Adam's original brand of "Antmusic for Sex People". Dirk Wears White Sox is more punky, raw, and off the commercial path. This release also has a few extra singles and different versions of songs that were originally released on an EP. I remember having to order these from the UK as a teen.

I owned DWWS on CD, but when I saw the re-mastered issue with the EP material, I bought it again. Now, I can finally part with my useless vinyl versions! The sound is fantastic and the liner notes have the lyrics--Adam was always good about that.
I love each song on this CD--I have had the opportunity to listen to them for over 26 years.

Adam's music is teeming with sexuality--God bless that man! Though he isn't vulgar, and is quite tame by today's standards, parents may get some odd questions from their child after listening to "Whip in my Valise".

If you are more a fan of the "Goody Two-Shoes" sound, this CD may sound alien to you. If you have only heard Adam's later music, then you are in for a treat. It surpasses his commercialized releases: Viva Le Rock, Manners and Physique, and Wonderful.

Buy this CD. If you don't like it right off, give it a fourth or even fifth listen before you send it to the dung heap. Any serious fan of Brit-post-punk should love it. Any fan of Adam's should know his roots.
