Screamin' Jay Hawkins is a wildcard figure in American music history, an RandB shouter best known for his chaotic, theatrical 1956 hit "I Put a Spell on You" and his reputation for unpredictable live performances. John Lurie is an experimental musician and filmmaker who helped define the downtown New York art scene. This 1987 Crammed Discs release captures the restless, noir-tinged aesthetic of Jim Jarmusch's indie masterpiece Stranger Than Paradise. The music sits somewhere between rock and roll swagger, free jazz exploration, and the cool detachment that defines Jarmusch's filmmaking. If you appreciate offbeat soundtracks and the creative energy of 1980s New York underground culture, this is an essential document.
