Peter Gordon, David Van Tieghem X Ten

Unearthed before Peter Gordon & David Van Tieghem collaboration from 1978, featuring vocals from special guest Kathy Acker, author of post-modern classic Blood And Guts In High School (1984). Gordon and Van Tieghem play all of the instruments and electronics, overdubbing on a 1" 8-track recorder. The result is intimate and vulnerable, yet ice cold and edgy. "Winter" is a cold-wave, proto-techno track. "Summer" is a lyrical and romantic instrumental. With Van Tieghem's drumming laying down the bedrock, the acoustic piano and vari-speeded marimba take turns drifting in-and-out of the foreground. Artwork features two new original, drawings by Laurie Anderson.
