01. If You’re So Smart, Why Aren’t You Rich?
02. The Moon’s Silent Modulation
03. Evil Nigger
Best of all is a thrilling version of Eastman’s 1979 composition Evil N****r. It’s minimalist, but not in the static, deadpan, additive manner of Reich and Glass: this is a wild, sensual, high-intensity, maximalist minimalism that’s as unsettling as its title…It’s demotic, demonic and blissfully delirious stuff.
