BOB CHANCE - IT'S BROKEN
There’s no one quite like Bob Chance. He’s and Californian man who makes his own music. 'It's Broken' is his 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 instrumentalist who writes his own songs. He has an unusual and unexpected flow of ideas that maybe shouldn’t work together but actually do in a most unorthodox and functional way. A touch of Giorgio Moroder, a bit of the Beach Boys and a sprinkle of Glen Campbell - it's a match made in Cali.
Jonny Trunk says: "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."
