Electronic hymns for a new age. I love every song, but I’ll never forget my astonishment at hearing I’ll Come Running for the first time. My man can write a pop song?!?

Glenn Branca - The Ascension (99 Records, 1981) Still as breathtaking as the first time I dropped the needle and heard Jeffrey Glenn’s bass doing something I would go on to emulate. Aptly named, too, with multiple lifts and pushes through time itself. #5debutalbums8084

Amethyst Rock Star

Saul Williams - Amethyst Rock Star (American Recordings, 2001) Scattered, but bold indeed, with the production matching Williams mood for mood. An Afro-futuristic gem, Coded Language probably makes Moor Mother & George Clinton jealous! #5debutalbums0004

Dirty Harriet

Rah Digga - Dirty Harriet (Flipmode/ Elektra, 2000) Stacked with great producers and loaded with her bottomless energy, toughness, and flair, this often sounds like a classic. Shame she spent a decade in the wilderness after it came out! open.spotify.com/album/6OUIOB... #5debutalbums0004

The first album is a killer, the second not so much. But overall, a great band! Hunt and Tony (sons of Soupy Sales) were a brilliant rhythm section here and on Lust For Life, not to mention Iggy's 1977 tour (with Bowie on keys).
