STAN RIDGWAY AND WALL OF VOODOO / "Call Of The West" - On this mythically-themed 1981 release dealing with the spirits of the Old West mingling mirage-like with the new, a more literate, and more carefully calibrated delivery began to emerge. Contains two bona fide classics in the driving and demented "Mexican Radio" (for which a video was filmed). "..wish I was in Tijuana / eating BBQed iguana.." and the immeasurably haunting Carver-esque "Lost Weekend", still considered to be one of Ridgway's greatest songs and a foreshadowing of even greater things to come. Ridgway hits his stride and critics and audiences loved it, making the band an MTV favorite. Also contains a classic Ridgway lyrical "knot" in the blue-collar nightmare "Factory".."I like to know what I'm doin' when I do it and I do what I'm doing 'cause I don't know what to do when I'm not doin' it..." A seriously chilling listen.

I saw Wall of Voodoo in 1983(?) in Little Rock. We were definitely a room full of freaks and geeks, but Stan and the boys were excellent. I agree with the assessment that "Lost Weekend" is an underappreciated classic, along with "Call of the West".

Too bad the Spud Police are watching all of us! The only freedom we have these days is the freedom to be stupid! It's 9 o'clock time to sit back in my chair... I don't know why I lose my hair.
