You Turn Me On (Reissue) (CD)
The fifth Beat Happening studio album, "You Turn Me On," was produced by Steve Fisk and Stuart Moxham. Mr. Moxham had been a member of the Young Marble Giants, an important early influence on the band. "You Turn Me On" finds the band experimenting with various arrangements and musical ideas; several of the songs have two, rather than the usual one, guitarists playing interwoven parts, and many of the songs break out of the band's standard three-minute song format, some extending into the six to nine minute range. Heather and Calvin also wrote lyrics for each other on "Sleepy Head" and "Hey Day." An expansive, rumbling audio odyssey, "You Turn Me On" includes the epics "Godsend" and "Tiger Trap," plus anthems "Teenage Caveman" and "You Turn Me On." "You Turn Me On" was originally a co-release with K and Sub/Pop in 1992 but has been out of print for several years on CD except as part of the Beat Happening "Crashing Through" box set.
