Description
Raymond Listen, as the band was originally known, was formed in the early 1990's by singer/songwriter/pianist Edward Moyse, when he moved from rural Wellsboro in Northern Pennsylvania to Newark, Delaware and asked Dave Milsom to form a band with him. Milsom quickly took up the drums. Gradually, they added Dave Silverman (flute/glockenspiel/keyboards) and Kim Benner (finger cymbals). There was a fertile music scene percolating in Delaware, including peers like Jimmy Crouse, Zen Guerrilla, Smashing Orange, and Carnal Ghia, some of whom Raymond Listen shared stages with in 1991 and 1992. In 1992, Raymond Listen started recording at Noise New York, with studio owner and legendary scenester gadfly (Mark) Kramer. His business was in transition, and sessions quickly moved to his new facility Noise New Jersey. The recordings that became "Licorice Root Orchestra" went so well that Kramer offered to release the results on Shimmy-Disc. Probably as a result of Shimmy-Disc's reach, the album was widely reviewed, and reviews were ecstatic. Melody Maker called it "Seismic" and hailed it as "a delicate work of weird genius." NME called it "magical and childlike." CMJ said "infused with the essence of Pet Sounds without sounding derivative." Sassy magazine issued them their coveted "Cute Band Alert." None of this seems to have contributed to much in the way of airplay or sales.
