“Rosler’s Recording Booth”

 (Fingers Crossed Records) Listening to this I wasn’t sure what it was – it’s a compilation in the sense that different artists perform each song, but the composer of each work, Don Rosler, has a heavy enough thumbprint to really make this the distinct work of a single artist. But more important in my confusion is that even after a  few spins despite being certain that this is a concept album or rock opera with some kind of cabaret/carnival hybrid theme, I couldn’t figure out or follow any specific narrative or theme, But the vibe was distinct and I dug it.
