(.....ID MUSIC......) by ( THE THIRD RAIL )...... ....( a fan says: I've just finished listening to Id Music for the very first time and am already finding it difficult to understand the lack of love for this thing. Now granted, despite the participation of Artie Resnick and Joey Levine (the latter best known for singing on records by The Ohio Express, Cuff Links, 1910 Fruitgum Co. and a whole bunch more), this isn't what most people would consider a bubblegum record. Id Music also predates all three of the "bands" I mentioned Joey Levine writing and/ or singing for. In the liner notes, Mr. Levine himself admits that the album is a little bit incoherent. Certainly there aren't many more songs that resemble "Run Run Run" (the "hit" that most people will know from the original Nuggets). What I hear, though, are some great soft pop/ sunshine pop numbers along the lines of Picadilly Line, Peppermint Rainbow, The Fun And Games and so on albeit with some REALLY sarcastic lyrics. Take for example the nursery-rhyming anti-war protest "The Ballad Of General Humpty" and verging-on-surreal-and/or-Dada "She Ain't No Choir Girl" (which manages to incorporate "The 12 Days Of Christmas," all manner of secret-agent jokes AND trumpeting elephants). Apart from "Run Run Run" and their cover of "The Shape Of Things To Come"- better known in its Max Frost & The Troopers version for Wild In The Streets- very little of the record is what might comfortably be termed garage/ garage punk. Still pretty entertaining nonetheless!! jacket is VG+++ vinyl is M--very nice!! )........
