Description
The Fans’ debut is a gem of 1977 and a magical piece of music. Never has the twilight Roxy Music sound been so perfectly channeled as on this EP. “Ekstasis” leaves me enchanted and breathless every time I hear it. Listen – the possibilities are endless.
Kevin Dunn’s studio wizardry continues on “Telstar” and “Lonely Girls”. His guitar textures here are especially well conjured and his voice is a teenager angels’.
The Fans are best known for starring Kevin Dunn before he produced the B52s. “Ekstasis” alone puts them in the top tier with Pere Ubu, Television, and Tuxedomoon. The single was released without a picture sleeve. VG+
