5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic synth pop treasure!!!!!, October 17, 2006

EBN-OZN are best known for "AEIOU Sometimes Y" and "Bag Lady", but they're lone album "Feeling Cavalier" is a fantastic synth pop treasure with lots of other great songs besides the two they're best known for, such as "Stop Stop Give It Up" (which was another single, but didn't have a video. I think it was only issued as a promo though.), Kuchenga Pamoja, Video D.J. and a crazy, but fun cover of Rockin' Robin, just to name a few. EBN died in 1998, but I don't know where OZN is now. I guess he's still involved in the film business, but he doesn't have an official site or anything. Anyway, "Feeling Cavalier" is an album that every 80's fan and/or synth pop fan shouldn't be without!!!!!

I have been waiting for this to come to cd forEVER. I had let the vinyl go, when I moved cross-country, with the crazy thought at the time that I would simply replace it on CD. Little did I know that it wasn't available then. I am one of those crazy people that has been emailing the record company, looking for it every few months on the Internet ... just in case. This album is literally my favorite album of the new wave synth style. Every song is a gem, with my personal favorite being their cover of Rockin' Robin. If you like 80's new wave music, I would consider this album a MUST HAVE for any 80's essential cd collection.

I am glad to have finally added the digital version of this to my collection. I had the original vinyl back in the day and I loved it's quirky subject matter and classic 80s synth pop sound. Ned Liben (EBN) was the composer who sculpted the synth sound. I believe that he went on to work with Scritti Politti and, sadly, died in 1998 of a heart attack. I was a member of the Kurzweil K2000 User Group back then and one of the other members was close to him and his wife. He said that they had mastered a digital version of the album for release and it was just a matter of time before it became available. Well, I am glad to finally own it.

The only reason that I didn't give this a 5-Star rating is because I really wish that it included the remixes of "Bag Lady" and "AEIOU and Sometimes Y."

Enjoy and relive the memories...
