*There’s no one quite like Bob Chance. He’s and Californian man who makes his own music. And here he is, on fire. It’s a privatley pressed album that has become a cult item in recent years. DJ Shadow calls it “hairy forearm disco”, I think it walks a fine line between the dancefloor and the asylum. *History: Originally recorded and issued by himself in 1980, “It’s Broken” represents Bob Chance’s creative juices flowing and then possibly overflowing all over the place. He’s a muliti talented multi instrumentalits who writes his own songs. I first came across the album in the USA, and decided to feature it as one of the strange slabs of vinyl I write about for my “weird record” column in Mojo. I described it as the musical equivalent of Curry House DIY, an unusual and unexpected flow of ideas that maybe shouldn’t work together but actually do in a most unorthodox and functional way. And if I have to describe the album musically to people I explain it has a touch of Giorgio Moroder, a bit of the Beach Boys and a sprinkle of Glen Campbell as a serial killer. *Whilst writing about the album a couple of years ago I had it on repeat for at least a day, and found myself singing the songs, really enjoying the harmonies, in fact reveling in the musical ideas present. How can you not love a nine minute post-disco oddity called “It’s Broken”? Why would you not want to thrill at a five minute instrumental journey into Bob’s jungle? And how about a short trip inside a stalker’s van? Exactly, it’s all irresistible. And now, thanks to this reissue more of us can enjoy the genius that is Bob Chance and his very unique music. *Both formats limited to 1000 copies. *Tracklist: 1. Brown Skinned Girl 2. Honey Lips 3. It's Broken! 4. The Van Man 5. I See Her 6. Colors 7. Jungle Talk
