Update: A user by the name of Robert Plante posted a comment on this saying Johnny Kitchen is Jack Millman, a jazz musician. A little bit of research proves this to be true, more info on Jack Millman can be found here. However, Barnaby Bennett of Tetraktys fame says that some of the tracks on this, as well as The Crazy People album, are indeed Tandyn Almer songs.
The Victims Of Chance were an American psychedelic band, and a project of the pseudonymous Johnny Kitchen, who also produced The Crazy People, Blues Train, and Larry "Wild Man" Fischer. Not much is known about this album, or Johnny Kitchen, though there's rumors that Johnny Kitchen is a pseudonym for fabled LA producer/songwriter/friend of Brian Wilson, Tandyn Almer.
This album features all types of tripped out shit. Think funky sunshine pop, full of weird samples, weird spoken word, tripped out guitar noises, snippets of cartoons, and more. This album sounds very similar to the other Johnny Kitchen production, The Crazy People - Bedlam. It also syncs up perfectly with the Easter Island episode of theJacques Cousteau Odyssey if you time it just right.
This album is certified for only the heaviest of trippers. Be careful with this one, it's a real heavy hitter.

Hello, I discovered who Johnny Kitchen was a few years ago. He's Jack Millman, the jazz musician. Easy to look it up now.
ReplyDeleteThanks man!
ReplyDeleteRe-upload the album anybody anywhere, please! :)
ReplyDeleteAll these files were on another computer, which ended up dying a month or so ago, along with megaupload it seems. I think my room mate might have them on his computer, if he does I'll reupload ASAP.
ReplyDeleteIt's OK. Thanks for the helping.
