“L’Argent” (IPU131)is the second release byAngelo Spencer et L’Orchidee d’Hawaifor ‘sInternational Pop Underground series of 7-inch records. The first was“Music Is My Sweat (IPU121).
Although there is a Side A and B, “L’Argent” is really one song; this is a single that can’t be left idletend to it like a re. “Part I” contains the voice of Angelo Spencer, it is calm and gently awakens you from a slumber, the urging guitar providing a tingle in the hands. “Part II” follows with a procession of handclaps, stringy guitars, a totemic drum and an echoplex that unspools like the celluloid at the end of the reel. Closed eyelids filled with spinning light, “L’Argent,” is a vinyl Dream Machine.
This is Vol. CXXXIin ‘sInternational Pop Underground Series.
