Inimitable post punk insurgents The John Cale produced ’79 Model Citizens EP is finally available again, and with it comes unheard live recordings from Max’s & Hurrah! “Model Citizens, attacking their instruments with poetic yet strangely ironic frenzy, reflect the frightened, scattered, painful (yet edge-of-ecstatic) world of the moment.” (NY Rocker) This short lived vanguard outfit now gets its due on red vinyl, with an insert featuring liner notes from Tim Page.There were four Model Citizens – Steve Alexander, Eugenie Diserio, Tomek Lamprecht and Gloria Richards. Like so many dedicated New Yorkers, they had all come from away – Poland (Tomek), Oregon and Japan (Gloria), West Texas (Steve) and what sometimes seemed the most thoroughly distanced place of all, the comfortable New York suburbs (Eugenie). They were young, bright, beautiful, and hungry; they were (and remain) very good at their multifarious endeavors, whether painting, fashion design, graphics, conceptual art, environmental exploration, writing or simply christening something Art and then making it worthy of the term. By 1978, they were friends, matriculants at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Fine Arts, and living together in a loft building just above 125th Street in West Harlem.
