Flat Earth
Used - LP - ST 12309
1984 US Original Jacksonville Pressing With Custom Inner Sleeve. "Exceptionally Mature For A Sophomore Effort, The Flat Earth Has Held Up Considerably Well Since Its 1984 Release. This Staying Power Belongs To A Fantastic Ensemble Of Supporting Players As Much As To Thomas Dolby's Songwriting And Crisp Production. "Dissidents" Steps In Cautiously And Conjures Images Of Blacklisted Authors And Ugly Snow, Gray From Oppression. Here And Elsewhere, Matthew Seligman's Bass Is A Welcome Addition -- Throughout The Album His Work Is Lavish, Growling, Popping Through Octaves, Funk-a-fied And Twinkling With Harmonics. The Title Track, "The Flat Earth," Is A Wondrous R&b Daydream Of Piano And Motown Stabs Of Rhythm Guitar. "Screen Kiss" Has A Similarly Ethereal Quality, And The Lyrics Are Lush With Imagery, If Occasionally Cryptic. "White City"'s Drug Reference And Chugging Groove Are As Murky As They Are Energizing, So New Wavers Might Find Themselves Frowning A Bit On The Dancefloor. Then There Is "Mulu The Rain Forest," A Globally Minded Curiosity Of Foreboding And Disorienting Samples That Certainly Feels A Long Way Off From The Golden Age Of Wireless. Dolby Gets Points For Shrugging Off Any Obligation To Formula, But This Voodoo Spell Has An Adverse Effect On The Rest Of The Album. What Follows Is Certainly A Graceful Recovery -- His Rendition Of 1967's "I Scare Myself" Is A Balmy Jazz Club Cocktail -- Faithfully Nostalgic, Right Down To A Bittersweet Trombone Solo From Peter Thomas. "Hyperactive" Is, And Always Was, One Part Bizarre To Two Parts Infectious. Guest Vocalist Adele Bertei Fuels The Fire Of What Was Already Destined To Be A Memorable Diversion, Beyond The Reach Of Top 40. Thomas Dolby's Work On The Flat Earth Harks Back To A Time When Songs Mattered More Than Videos, Even As Mtv Was Discovering Its Strength. Last Time The Songwriter Blinded Us With Science; This Time It's Musicianship." AMG - Glenn Swan.

Forty
New - LP - 014
Sealed 2004 LP. "...This Entertaining, Superbly Recorded And Self-Produced Live 40th Birthday EP Demonstrates A Man Who Is More A Techno-Hipster Romantic Than A Novelty Song Writer, And More A Sonic Gourmet Than A Technofile...The Carefully Drawn Arrangements Are Spare, Striking And Intimate; The Recording, Though Digital, Is Startlingly Three-Dimensional, Delicate And Transparent. Whatever You Think 'Digital' Sounds Like, Please Check It At The Door. This Set Was Recorded On An Old TASCAM D-88 Multi-Track Digital Recorder Off The Mixing Board And It Will Amaze You. Don't Ask Me What Engineer Todd Wollersheim Did To Achieve These Results...A Pleasant Surprise And Highly Recommended For Music And Three Dimensional, Transparent Sound - And Don't Let The Digital Recording Stop You!" Music = 8/11; Sound = 9/11" - Michael Fremer, www.musicangle.com

Golden Age Of Wireless
New - LP - ST 12271
Sealed 1983 Original. Gold Promo Stamp On Cover And Part Of The Custom "She Blinded Me With Science" Hype Sticker On Shrink Wrap. “Talk To Anyone Who Was The Right Age In The Early '80s For Both Pop Radio And The Dawn Of MTV, And "She Blinded Me With Science" Will Inevitably Come Up. The Most Famous Song From The Reissued Version Of The Album, It's A Defiantly Quirky, Strange Number That Mixes Its Pop Hooks With Unusual Keyboard Melodies Pitched Very Low And A Recurrent Spoken Word Interjection ("Science!") From Guest Vocalist/Video Star Magnus Pike. To Thomas Dolby's Credit, The Rest Of The Album Isn't Simply That Song Over And Over Again, Making The Golden Age Of Wireless An Intriguing And Often Very Entertaining Curio From The Glory Days Of Synth Pop. Part Of The Album's Overall Appeal Is The Range Of Participating Musicians, No Doubt Thanks In Part To Dolby's Own Considerable Range Of Musical Work Elsewhere. "She Blinded Me With Science" Itself Features Kevin Armstrong On Guitar, Matthew Seligman On Bass, Mega-Producer Robert "Mutt" Lange On Backing Vocals, And Co-Production With Tim Friese-Greene. Elsewhere, Andy Partridge Contributes Harmonica, Mute Records Founding Genius Daniel Miller Adds Keyboards, And Lene Lovich Adds Some Vocals Of Her Own. The Overall Result Is Still First And Foremost Dolby's, With Echoes Of David Bowie's And Bryan Ferry's Elegantly Wasted Late-'70s Personas Setting The Stage. Especially Fine Numbers Include The Amusing Romp "Europa And The Pirate Twins" And The Nostalgia-Touched, Just Mysterious Enough "One Of Our Submarines.” Ned Raggett, AMG.
