Debora Iyall, "Strange Language"

Rocky Road

From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes!

In the early-80s, post-punk band Romeo Void hailed from right here, San Francisco. I'm not sure if they ever played at the Kabuki Nightclub. In Spring 1986, that property was converted into the AMC Kabuki movie theater. Look to your lower right. Spot the white building with black trim, whose ground floor is painted green. That's now the theater, plus Kabuki Springs.

In the mid-80s, Romeo Void broke up, while on tour. Via local newspapers (that intersection of Geary and Fillmore used to have newspaper stands), my schoolmates and I discovered that Romeo Void's lead singer, Debora Iyall, was working on a solo album. Hard to find, Strange Language was panned, for being over-produced. Here's the title track, which we do not recall ever hearing on AM/FM radio. You had to buy it for yourself. Nowadays, "Strange Language" is the stuff good and shrewd internet radio stations dig for.
