CD
Price:
$12.00
Catalog #:
DEX 009CD
"Originally released in 1976,
Corrected Slogans
presents the first audible stirrings of Red Crayola since their 1968
God Bless the Red Crayola and All Who Sail With It
. In the intervening years, Mayo Thompson made what has been hailed as the finest album in the history of rock music (
Corky's Debt To His Father
), moved from Texas to NY, and began to collaborate with the group of artists known collectively as Art & Language. As a provisional propaganda piece,
Corrected Slogans
is rancorously, unabashedly, and gloriously wordy. It's work-driven quality most closely recalls
Kangaroo?
(the next Crayola collaboration with Art & Language). While
Kangaroo?
was a pop album,
Corrected Slogans
takes a sparse acoustic setting, allowing the many voices of the Art & Language troop to represent a socialist-style collective voice of the common man."
