Ork Records - New York, New York

"The music and photographs capture the formative moments of punk and new wave, before those genres had been thoroughly defined. It's a glimpse at iconic personalities in a moment of vulnerability, before they were fully hatched and before anybody cared. By contemporary standards, these songs might not register as wild or controversial. In the context of the '70s-a time of slick pop and bluesy choogle-Ork's artists were from another planet".

" these rare tracks by the Feelies, Richard Hell, Alex Chilton, Kenneth Higney, the Student Teachers, and Richard Lloyd are fun, exciting, and a splendid reflection of the "anything goes" spirit of the early New York punk scene before stylistic codification set it ... Ork Records: New York, New York is a superb evocation of a vitally important time and place in American rock & roll, and it's fun, eclectic listening to boot".
