Within Ball \u0026amp; Socket, Minnelli pushes his own vocals to the forefront for the first time, compared to the more accustomed background approach previously. The record also sees a collaboration with Osaka's Kiki Hitomi (Waqwaq Kingdom, ex King Midas Sound) on Unkind, the two intertwining throughout. Fans of the pairing will be happy when it gets a re-up halfway through on the Discomix.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBall \u0026amp; Socket is a personal record on many a level for Minnelli, and the result ends up as one of his most beautiful body of works yet.
