Reviews & Discussion
Electro purists love to hate Fischerspooner. (Not only have they signed a contract for reportedly lots of money, but they're also inextricably linked to the hated "Electroclash" movement in New York.) All that aside, however, this is a really nice release on John Selway's Memory Boy Records. None of the music is by Fischerspooner, their name is just on the label, presumably to draw people's attention to it. All four tracks are from the late '70s-early '80s, and definitely deserve this re-release. The first cut is a mix of two different tracks by Shock. The Magnifique track is a classic, but it would have been nice to have a longer cut, perhaps incorporating Magnifique Part I (the version with vocals) as well. The two tracks on the B side, by Gay Cat Park and E.T.M.S., are both amazing classics. All in all, a really nice package.
