CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Hal Horowitz Recommends: Chances are, even the Mael brothers (Ron/keyboards and Russell/vocals), who formed Sparks in 1970, would not have thought Sparks would be riding a wave of popularity fifty-years into a long, twisted career. Credit the 2021 The Sparks Brothers documentary for rekindling interest in the offbeat band, and keeping the flame burning for their long-time fans, while helping spread the word to the uninitiated about their nearly indescribable prog/glam/pop/dance/whatever sound and a glorious 25 album career, that, despite being decades old, has somehow remained timeless. They don’t tour often. Don’t miss this chance to see an iconic, idiosyncratic act described in the movie as “your favorite band’s favorite band” while you have the chance. — HH
