DRY RIB
- Ref. XD898Y
- HYPED TO DEATH RECORDS, 2008. Enregistrement 1978-1982.
D.I.Y. with a guitar-genius/nonsense poet only begins to explain Dry Rib and the projects that followed... And things only got cooler, odder, and more idiosyncratic as Rob Vasey's audio insurgency progressed... Ed Ball of O Level (and later the Times and Teenage Film Stars) saw Dry Rib first in late 1978 and promptly signed them to his new Clockwork label. He writes, "Dry Rib were a late '70s three piece group of some indefinable power - not Powerful in the obvious sense, as in everyone slugging out the same riff... More the power of musical and lyrical imagination... "Rob Vasey's guitar style of blurred chord stylings coupled with continuous tremolo arm pre-empted My Bloody Valentine (or anyone else) by the best part of a decade. [He] wasn't like Eric Clapton or Paul Weller in way/shape/form... Which could only be a good thing because, he superseded these fellows for sheer guitar innovation and songscapes that neither could even conceive of... Rob was ably supported by two equally intelligent musicians - Andrew Goodwin (one of the best two drummers
I've ever played with - and that includes the so-called shit-hot
