Trotsky Icepick
El Kabong
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1989 Original Housed In Laminated Cover. Some Edge Creasing. "On The First Trotsky Icepick Release To Feature New Vocalist John Talley-jones, The Band Adopted A Simpler, Harder-rocking Sound Than On Baby. New Drummer Hunter Crowley Was A More Powerful And Straightforward Player Than His Predecessors, And The Soft Art Rock Touches Retreated To The Background Of Most Songs. There Are A Few Tracks Here That Show The Potential Of The New Lineup -- "Cornfield" Has Effective Harmonies By Talley-jones And Vitus Mataré And An Unusual Melody Line In Which The Bass And Drums Are The Lead Instruments. Another Highlight Is "Unbuttoned," A Rare Lyrical Contribution From Bassist John Rosewall, Which Is Both Really Disturbing And Very Well-Performed." All Music Guide – Richard Foss
