Free Music Notes for Elgin Avenue Breakdown Revisited
Free Music Review: AS GOOD AS ANY CLASH CD...OR BETTER!
Hit: 5 Stars
Yep, hard to believe ANYTHING could be better than the Clash, but w/this release, the truth is in the hearing. First off, the production is great; Joe is in excellent form, and you can tell what a future leader in the punk movement he is even in the 101er's. Songs fit the classic British Pub Movement style; garage driven short tunes w/ear candy melodies that act like a consant cassette in your brain and cannot be ejected. More than some of their classmates in the pre-punk daze, Joe & Co. inject feeling, emotion, and energy that is captured on disk and blasted through your speakers. The hit Keys to Your Heart is here with many other classic sounding songs. Excellent
Elgin Avenue Breakdown Revisited Poster
Those who doubt the obsessive, unbridled affection Clash mainstay Joe Strummer held for traditional rock and R&B roots need only punch up virtually any track on this infectious collection of live and studio cuts from the 101ers, the raw yet accomplished band Strummer fronted just prior to his punk superstardom. While most such early-catalog excavations are suspicious and often spotty, Elgin Avenue Breakdown Revisited is a revelatory rush, from the opening blowout of "Letsagetabitarockin'." Many of the tracks rock with the rootsy charm of fellow pub rockers Ducks Deluxe, yet one can hear the later sound of the Clash nearly fully formed on tracks like the blue-beat-seasoned "Sweet Revenge," "Keys to Your Heart," and "Junco Partner." The collection's second half kicks into even higher gear, presenting a generous slate of previously unreleased live workouts that hammer familiar R&B staples like "Shake Your Hips" and "Maybellene" into submission and closing with a frenzied rave-up of Van Morrison and Them's Brit Invasion staple, "Gloria." --Jerry McCulleyJoe Strummer's 'lost' Debut Solo Album, Recorded after his Split from the Clash and Before He Formed the Mescaleros. Composed as the Score to the Alex Cox Film.
