Brooklyn bon vivant Kim Rancourt’s plum plum opens with the catchiest thing I’ve heard in ages (“Walking the Trashline Properties”), descends into a psychedelic abyss (“The Thing That Is”) and reawakens as a golden gospel great (“Leave Your Light On”). Rancourt, a late-20th -century indie hellion of cult notoriety, is the brighteyed child of the Velvets, MC5 and Iggy and the Stooges, and his band—Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley, Blue Öyster Cult bassist Joe Bouchard and balling guitarists Don Fleming and Gary Lucas—should be preserved in amber. Rancourt sings with a gleam in his voice and a glint in his eye, and his album deserves a special place in the Coney Island of your heart.
