Ebn Ozn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ēbn-Ōzn was the New Wave duo of Ned "EBN" Liben (synthesizer) and Robert "OZN" Rosen (organ, vocals) that made a small splash in the music scene with the single, "AEIOU Sometimes Y," in 1983.
The duo came together in the early '80s in New York when Rosen met Liben through a friend of his girlfriend. Soon after meeting they started spending time together in clubs listening to different types of dance music. In 1983 they released their only LP, Feeling Cavalier, on Elektra Records. "AEIOU Sometimes Y," and "Bag Lady (I Wonder)" were released off the album soon after, with the former becoming a modern rock radio staple for a short while, and the latter a minor radio hit. The duo then went their separate ways.
Liben went on to work with Scritti Politti, while Rosen formed a studio group, before leaving music to become a screenwriter. Liben died in 1998 of a heart attack.
Feeling Cavalier was released on CD on Oct. 17, 2006 by Wounded Bird Records.
