Klen House Radio #04


What better way to begin your day than with the smooth dulcet tones of Klen House Radio? I profess a deep, sickly, bordering-on-uncomfortable love of Happy End's 1971 album "Kazemachi Roman", showing that the Japanese at the dawn of the 70s could be as big of dirty hippies as we Northern Californians ever could. My brother once euphoniously referred to the band as "Japanese Andrew Bird" though I confess I never saw the connection, outside of their use of acoustic guitars. Also included is an early rendition of The Fiery Furnaces' 'Bright Blue Eyes' labelled as 'Sweden' on the tape. Dig it.

1. Cranky - Party 4u (Holy Night Mix)
2. The Piranhas - tom Hark
3. Happy End - Soraio no Crayon
4. Grace Jones - Bullshit
   -Commercial: Dutch 7-Up
5. Boyd Rice and Daniel Miller - Cleanliness and Order
6. Game Theory - Waltz the Halls Always
7. Goblin Cock - Ode to Billy Jack
8. The Fiery Furnaces - Sweden

Let the magic wash over you here.
