Bop (Harvey) - Better Angels LP
SKU: JUMP202
Description:
US import!
Full
disclosure – this release is a passion project for Jump Up’s
founder Chuck Wren. Much like the albums unearthing lost material
from Chicago’s Rude Guest and Skanking Lizard, Jump Up is on a
mission to preserve some of ska’s “forgotten” legends from the
1980s. Bop (Harvey) was a band you had to see to fully appreciate –
when they played ska it was tight, when they did the reggae it was
with a real groove. One of the most memorable shows was in 1990,
when a young DJ Chuck Wren used a fake ID to get into Lounge Ax
Chicago to see the band, – and accidentally saw Phish open up for
them!
From the hot ska of “Orange King”, “O, Alexabdria” and “Motor City
Ska”, to the folk rock charm of “Better Angels”, and “Inside &
Out”, to the psychedelic reggae of “Time Waits For No One”, “You
Ain’t So Grand” , “Good Trouble” and “Love Will Dry Your Tears” –
BOP (Harvey) delivers an enjoryable platter from start to finish.
As an added bonus all orders will come with an original “Bread
& Circuses” cassette tape from 1990!
