Customer Reviews of Made with a Passion: Kitchen Demo's
The best thing I ever heard I have enjoyed Billy's stuff for a long time, but the best thing on this CD was the Armitage Shanks song 'Shirts Off'. Having seen Armitage Shanks live and heard their records, this CD could have featured the other songs Billy recorded with them. I know some of the songs are featured on the new CD called '25 Golden Showers'. Well done Billy Childish and long live Armitage Shanks.
It does what it says on the tin!
There is something about each of Billy Childish's records which more than justify their continued existance within my record collection.
So it is with this CD. Consisting of home recorded demos (which appear in various other forms elsewhere) the main attraction is the human quality of the recordings which often capture the feel of his solo live performances.
The lofi quality shouldn't be a problem for someone with even the most casual appreciation of his music, in fact isn't that part of the attraction? The notes written by Billy on the back of the record sum it up perfectly...
What Was He Thinking?!?
As one of the progenitors of lo-fi DIY, Childish has not only scored some well-deserved respect for his no-frills, impassioned songwriting, but also helped propel the indie attitude and aesthetic significantly.
Nonetheless, the man is not without his lapses in judgment. This collection of demos would not be the first time Childish peddles product no one in their right mind would touch (his 'poetry' books are a glaring example). Unless such scraps were one's own, they would be meaningless to anyone else: warbled echoes, mushed guitar sounds, 'acapella' song ideas whispered in the can, and mangled song bits of all sorts -- all this presented as the intimate musings of an 'artiste' at work. What drivel. That such garbage does not embarrass Childish is proof of the man's callousness -- the very trait he so much despises in the record industry.
One thing is to make lo-fi music, quite another to release lo-fi demos of lo-fi songs. ...
