Baby 81 is an ambitious, powerful, guitar-driven rock’n’roll record that’s guaranteed to get people jumping and thinking. Sonically it’s a far cry from 2005’s rootsy, acoustic Howl, Baby 81 was born only minutes after the final track on Howl was completed, when Peter Hayes (guitars/vocals) and Robert Levon Been (bass/vocals/keys) were rejoined in the studio by drummer Nick jago after a brief break up earlier that year. “I was almost in tears the whole time, it was very emotional,” Jago recalls. “That was the most memorable recording session I’ve had.” Been felt the same way: After laying down the inspired, hard-charging “Took Out a Loan” and “666 Conducer,” “I held onto those two songs for the next year, daydreaming about what would happen if we finished that” Been says.
