1. GLORIA

2. REDONDO BEACH

3. BIRDLAND

4. FREE MONEY

5. KIMBERLY

6. BREAK IT UP

7. LAND

8. ELEGIE

9. MY GENERATION

Released in 1975. It anticipated and influenced the punk movement that was to come. The music is crude and primitive, the lyrics are garage rock laced with a healthy dose of literary symbolism. Patti was heavily influenced by the classic poets as well as Jim Morrison. Horses was her first album and produced by The Velvet Underground’s John Cale. In 2005 the album was remastered and re-issued in an edition that featured a track by track live recording from a 2004 concert. The music and performance have lost none of the power or brilliance in the years since the original release.
