Winners

$7.50
Catalog #:
THR 012.23CD
"In a move designed to further Bobby's recent success, Thrill Jockey presents 5 interpretations of the global hit song 'Winners'. In addition to the album version, Tortoise's John McEntire turns this pop gem into a rumbling no-wave engine. Hot Detroit electro duo Adult. get the kids on the dancefloor with their 'losers mix', Mr. Pot Bear emphasizes the tune's magnificent horn arrangement and upstart Chicago techno-maven Magas strips the tune down to its raw essence. There are winners and losers, and Mr. Conn certainly falls into the former category."

Title:
Llovessonngs EP
Label:
THRILL JOCKEY
Format:
CD
Price:
$8.00
Catalog #:
THR 075CD
"Bobby has been forced to provide the public with a tonic, a pacifier, to ensure stability and safety within the rock community.
Llovessonngs
, a 4 song ep, features Conn interpretations of the Ham/Evans track, 'Without You', and the Caetano Veloso composition, 'Marie B.' For, 'Without You', Conn began where Nilsson Schmilsson left off -- right in the heart of the FM dial. Joined for the recording by well known percussionist Michael Zerang, Conn's performance of 'Marie B.' sounds like an out take from his recent residency at Caesars Palace. Inspired by French socialite Virginia, Conn composed a song that may only the familiar to those that joined him at his snow bunny bash in San Moritz. Ending at the beginning, 'Free Love', works itself up into a deep groove that has been rated NC-17 by our friends at the RIAA. All songs feature the sultry French violinist Monica Boubou, and there are guest appearances from the crème of Chicago's Classical and Jazz community."

CD
Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
THR 084CD
"
The Golden Age
continues the Conn/Thrill Jockey union in fine fashion as Bobby picks up where
Llovesongs
left off, inviting the listener to indulge in a world of leisure. It's a world that celebrates the salad days of FM radio in the 1970's, exploring the glam, disco, pop, rock and soul that decade of decadence is known for. Always a perfectionist Bobby spent a year & a half making
The Golden Age
, recording in studios with Jim O'Rourke, John McEntire and others."

Catalog #:
THR 137CD
"Bobby Conn is back this time with a vengeance.
The Homeland
is first and foremost a rock record. Clad in glam attire, Mr. Conn, a consummate entertainer, pays homage to rock and roll's excesses. Paradoxically Mr. Conn's lyrics read like a Michael Moore letter. Lampooning the sacred cow of American values has always been a calling card of Mr. Conn.
The Homeland
continues Bobby's long running commentary on consumerism as culture."
