Ike Yard - NCR, 1982
Experimental minimal electronic group founded in 1979 post-punk New York by Stuart Argabright (Dominatrix, Death Comet Crew), Kenny Compton (bass/vocals), Fred Szymanski (synthesizers/ programming) and Michael Diekmann (guitar), named after the record shop in A Clockwork Orange. Together they recorded for labels like Disques du Crépuscule and Factory. NCR is off their eponymous album on Factory, often confused as ‘A Fact A Second’ due to the catalog translation of “a Factory America second release” in the cover design.
One of my favorite new york cold wave Lp’s. I actually found it in nyc for $1!
