Eligible Bachelors
The Monochrome Set
Released:
Jan 1982
Label:
Cherry Red Records
Less sonically experimental then the Monochrome Set's previous album (the tragically undervalued Love Zombies), Eligible Bachelors is a good place to start discovering one of the new wave era's finest guitar acts. This 1982 set kicks off with the priceless "Jet Set Junta," which sets an ironic, darkly humorous tone for everything that follows. Key tracks include "The Ruling Class," "The Mating Game," "On the Thirteenth Day" and "The Devil Rides Out." The Set were huge Velvet Underground fans and the original LP came with a "thumbs up" blurb from none other than Andy Warhol.
