SHOULDER OF MUTTON A-THREATENING HIZZ, LP, 1980, GERMANY







As requested by Jim, Shoulder Of Mutton A's concoctions are as sublime as they are fried. Interestingly, this masterpiece of art rock weirdness owes not a whit to any tendencies being explored elsewhere within either the Neue Deutshe Welle scene or whatever remained of a krautrock scene by that late date. Rather, Shoulder Of Mutton A musically belong to that much vaunted (well...here anyway) post Beefheart/post Residents continuum that takes in the likes of Steaming Coils, Bomis Prendin, Buxinrut and The Decayes (to name but a few), a species of advanced musical sickness that should have insured these cat's legends ages ago.

Goodmorning to all Mutant Sounds people.

Congratulations for your effort, dedication to music and altruism for spreading good music around.

The reason for writting is one possible request. The one LP that has given me the most difficult time locating (and I still haven't found it).

Tim Hodgkinson - Splutter

This one is Tim Hodgkinson's debut solo LP "Splutter". It was released on his own label Woof Records with number Woof010. It's a magnificent album of solo saxophone and clarinet experimentations.

I would be very grateful if anyone could provide a link to this album.

Thanks to all in advance

Chris Moondog Jr.

Phallophorie Two on Reaseau Phallus didn't come out in 1985. I'm certain of this because Phallophorie One came out in January of 1986.
