Aunt Sally - Aunt Sally




Originally, this was the third release on Vanity Records in 1979. It's a stunning collection of twisted post-punk with Phew (Hiromi Moritani) on vocals, Yoshio Nakaoka and Takashi Maruyama on bass and drums (who were in a band called Commune who I would love to hear but have never managed to), Bikke (Yasuko Mori) on guitar and keyboardist Mayu, who gives Yvonne Pawlett a run for her money. He or she seems to be the only member of the group who doesn't appear anywhere else.

This is the CD re-release on Undo Records from 2002 that adds another three murky and magnificent live recordings from a gig at Shinsaibashi Bahama, Osaka on March the 18th 1979.

@Badgerstump: "...Yoshio Nakaoka and Takashi Maruyama on bass and drums (who were in a band called Commune who I would love to hear but have never managed to)...."

Well their single can be found in the blogosphere, for example here: http://stalkingduppi.blogspot.com.es/2011/05/commune-willi-cant-believe-7-autonomy.html (the link was active today, I checked it). As for the Commune 1981 tape (see discogs), I'd love to hear that one too :)

Woops I forgot to sign my 'anonymous' comment. And by the way now I realise that I hadn't still said thanks for this post, which, if memory serves, was the one that brought me to this very blog (I was searching around for those three bonus live tracks...). Thanks!

Fernando desu.

Saludos :)
