Customer Reviews of No New York
Some Good, Mostly Junk I bought this as a record when it first came out in the late 70s. I was a teen age high school punk then and heard some of this on a college radio station and thought it was pretty cool. When I bought the record, I kind of liked it, but it was very variable. After listening to it for a while, I put it away, and never listened to it again for probably over 20 years. Only one of the groups on the record stood out in my mind as being any good--the Contortions. I bought a couple of their later record (f'rinstance, "Buy The Contortions") and really dug them.
I recently pulled this out of my closet while cleaning up, and, out of curiosity, put it on. It's about what I remember it being. I like Eno, but the production on this disk sounds a bit on the amateurish side. Maybe that was an intentionally "arty" choice. As a matter of fact, this whole album overdoes it quite a bit on the art school side. The Contortions still sound good, and DNA is OK, but Mars [is bad] and Teenage Jesus, etc., are even worse.
I guess I probably paid 4 or 5 bucks for this when it first came out. I see it's available on CD now only as a 40 dollar import. I may be over-rating it even at 3 stars, so unless you're really into artifacts, or were into that New York scene at the time (as I was) and are really into nostalgia for your teenage years (I'm not), or if you want to indulge in some musical history (it seems this record is considered important by some) I wouldn't reccomend it.
