Hello. I spent nearly 10 years selling on that other site (you can check my feedback there; It's under the same ID as this one; over 3200 positives, 99.7%). But I thought I'd give this new site a try.
Like all of my cds, this is an Original CD, with original inserts (NO CD-Rs or bootlegs).....
Item Specifics - Music: CDs
Artist: U & I Release Date: Mar 25, 1996
Format: CD Record Label: Southern Records
Genre: Rock UPC: 718751853522
Vastly under appreciated NYC band featuring Sasha Frere-Jones, who's also played with Loren Mazzacane Conners.
This is their Debut CD.
"Allied to the more organic, instrumental groovesters in the American post-rock scene led by Tortoise, Ui focuses on angular grooves provided by a dual-bass attack. The New York band was formed in 1990 by bassist Sasha Frere-Jones (formerly of the group Dolores and probably better known as a journalist than a musician) and drummer Clem Waldmann. The duo played several gigs, occasionally with additional bassist Alex Wright and DJ/percussionist David Weeks, before replacing them with bassist Wilbo Wright in 1991. The trio's first release, the 2-Sided EP, appeared in 1993 on the British Hemiola label. During 1995, the band recorded the Unlike EP in addition to another EP and single for Soul Static Sound. As part of a tour that year with Tortoise and Labradford, Ui signed a contract with Chicago's Southern Records. Their debut album, Sidelong, was released in 1996, followed by the Dropplike EP. The group collaborated with Techno Animal and Luke Vibert, among others in the experimental electronica underground, before teaming up with Stereolab for the Fires EP, released as Uilab. A second album, Lifelike, followed in 1998. After taking off for most of a year, the band reunited in 1999 for a European tour, a session for John Peel's program, and an EP titled The Iron Apple. The trio spent two years writing songs and playing on-and-off, then added bassist Erik Sanko for the recording of 2003's Answers."

Editorial reviews
...Ui weaves a riff-heavy web that blends the sophistication of mid-'80s King Crimson and the sass of the Meters with the butt-shakin' groove of the Tom Tom Club....Ui plies simple funk drumming and intertwining bass leads into moody character sketches...
Musician (10/01/1996)
...UI plays rock that slinks between genres. Most of its songs are instrumentals, with a motion that's not exactly dub reggae, slow funk or sleepwalking rock...
New York Times (03/17/1996)
...it's the expansive groove that reels you in....Investigate now.
Melody Maker (04/13/1996)
6 (out of 10) - ...fundamentally, UI...represent a menace to sobriety. `Post-Rock' is the handy catchphrase...and this appears to encompass somnambulant funk....UI are studious sorts who can take their intense groovings to such extremes that SIDELONG is hilarious at times...
NME (03/23/1996)
...Dense, angular noise wrapped in plaintive electronic meanderings....stately grooves augmented by occasional impenetrable mumblings...
