IN 2009 ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE WROTE THE FOLLOWING ABOUT RICHARD HELL AND THIS ALBUM:
'In 1982, Richard Hell & the Voidoids released their second and final album Destiny Street, the follow-up to the group’s punk epic Blank Generation. Now, 27 years after Destiny Street‘s release, Richard Hell is revisiting the album and putting it out as Destiny Street Repaired — Hell rerecorded the entire album with the help of three guitarists: Tom Waits collaborator Marc Ribot, jazz guitarist Bill Frisell and original Voidoid Ivan Julian. The album, which features fresh vocals but the original rhythm track, will be released in multiple formats via Insound on September 1st (2009)'.
“At the time of the original recording I was so debilitated by despair and drug-need that I was useless,” Hell says in a press release. “The record ended up being a high-pitched sludge of guitar noise. It was a shame because the songs were clean, simple, and well-constructed, but those values were sabotaged by the inappropriate arrangements and production.” Destiny Street has been unavailable since 2006, when Hell deliberately made the album out-of-print after regaining the rights to the LP. Upon finding the original rhythm tracks, Hell decided to remake the album as it was originally intended. “I couldn’t resist trying to use them to fill and patch up the sinking feeling that the thought of the record had always produced in me,” Hell adds.
All lead vocals by: Richard Hell. All solos and additional guitar by: Marc Ribot, Bill Frisell, Ivan Julian. Produced by Richard Hell at Hal Willner's House of Knuck and John Kilgore Sounds and Recording, NYC. Engineer: Patrick Ford. Recorded 2008-09.
