Three Ep's

Amazon.com
Citing influences ranging from the decidedly serious Martin Sheen to the asinine Chevy Chase to funkmaster Bootsy Collins, the Beta Band is a delight. This aptly titled compilation of three separately released EPs is sure to leave music fans scratching their collective head while trying to define this Scottish band's intricate aural hodgepodge. The Beta Band makes a very distinct and exciting impression. There's the unusual coupling of acoustic guitar, horn, sampled beats, and a catchy refrain on "Dry the Rain"; the hypnotic instrumental "B+A"; and "She's the One," which opens with a chaotic, hippyish drum circle that segues first to an anthemic chorus and then to a highly processed breakdown complete with a Jew's harp. The Three EPs will dominate the CD player, becoming somewhat of an obsession, with each listen revealing some brilliant little nuance, quirk, or lyric. --Kerry Murphy

Product Description

The band holed up in a church in Maine for a weekend in the dead of winter and recorded Kindermusik live to eight tracks. As a result, these songs sound natural and unlabored, balancing the energy and urgency of live performance with the clarity of studio work. Deftly engineered by Dave Coleman to capture the open, roomy sound of the church, it also retains the warmth and detail of the songs.

Landmark anti-war agit-prop and psychedelia.......2002-08-17

Before they burst into mainstream stardom via "Woodstock," Country Joe & The Fish recorded a pair of "talking magazines" -- 7" EPs that were an outgrowth of McDonald's political publication, Rag Baby. The first, recorded in 1965, contains the original versions of a pair of songs that would turn up (in re-recorded form) on the band's debut album. "I Feel Like I'm Fixin' to Die Rag" and "Superbird" are both rendered as folky jug-band tunes, the former overdubbed with war sound effects, and the latter with a directness that bites even harder than the later album take. The flip side of this original EP contained a pair of tunes from folk singer Peter Krug, "Fire in the City" and "Johnny's Gone in the War," each rendered in a straight ahead vocal-and-guitar arrangement.

In 1966 CJ & The Fish cut a second Rag Baby EP. By this time they'd electrified, with the bluesy electric guitar and Farfisa sound that would become familiar on the following year's Vanguard LP debut. Early versions of "Bass Strings" and "Section 43" show the band having made an enormous psychedelic leap from the previous year's outing.

Rounding out the Rag Bay collection is a purpose-built 1971 EP by Country Joe, sans Fish, that was to be sold at a series of anti-war "FTA" (Free the Army) shows to fund the shows and veteran's activities. Few copies apparently made it to shows to be sold (many having been lost or burned!). The tunes, "Kiss My Ass," "Tricky Dicky" and "Free Some Day" are more pointed and politicized than ever, and the arrangements return to the folk and jug-band sounds of the early days.

The Rag Baby EPs have been released several times, first on vinyl, then on CD. The earliest reissue appears to have been a 1980 vinyl LP on a reactivated Rag Baby label; this was re-reissued on CD by Sequel in 1987. Both the LP and CD included the three EP's original ten tracks, plus an alternate version of "I Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die Rag." In 1997 the One Way label issued a CD that augmented the original ten tracks with two alternates of "I Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die Rag" as well as a pair of previously unreleased sides ("Who Am I?" and "Dirty Claus Rag") that were recorded at the original 1965 session. The three tracks from the second Rag Baby EP also turned up on Big Beat's "The Berkeley EPs" in 1995.

Of all the reissues, One Way's fourteen-track compendium is the most fully baited hook for Fish fans.

Buy Chatterbox Now.......2006-03-18

Ladies and gentlemen, buy this album NOW. It is filled with BLISS. A continuous flow of soothing melody. The only down side to Chatterbox, is that being an EP, it is simply not long enough. You just want it to last forever! It's exactly the kind of music you want to be played at your funeral, because it's good music for the soul. Ladies and gentlemen, buy CHATTERBOX NOW.

Rock solid debut album.......2006-03-15

The Chatterbox album leaves you wanting more. I think that's the best compliment I can give it. This album is genuinely soulful and has that brutal honesty we can only hope for from more artists. You owe it to yourself to pick it up and check out the textures within.

Stellar, moody debut from LA songsmith!.......2006-03-15

Hands-down, one of the best releases of 2006 so far. Each and every listen uncovers bits of musical ear candy that is sure to please the headphone set. The lyrics are poignant with a wealth of clever word play. It would be easy to sit here and list influences so why bother. Buy this album, discover it and pass it along!

Method Actor is an awful minor-key tune somewhere between modern ambience and retro power-pop, and is the absolute worst of both worlds. Reminds me a bit of Radiohead, Elliott Smith, and Tricky, except worse. It's just one horrible harmonically rancid chord after another, not even sticking to a key. Don't Leave is light years better with an actual acoustic guitar sound, reminding me of Iron And Wine and Owen, except still with some remnants of the previous awful song's ambience, and the singing is forced and breathy.
