About This Item
This record being the third in a trilogy of song collections mostly based on film music I wrote for Spike Lee over the past few years, I wanted to move to some new stylistic places and maybe make a more upbeat record overall. We don't get a ballad until #7, the pandemic shut-down era piece InchDays AheadInch (a duet with Danielle Haim). Lyrically the record is dotted with three Covid-related songs; the aforementioned, InchTagInch and the album opener InchSidelinesInch (a duet with Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend), and otherwise ranges far afield with the world of science again a recurring influence (InchLidarInch and InchPoint OmegaInch). The record also includes the first cover song I've ever put on a studio , a total re-imagining of Chuck Berry's InchToo Much Monkey Business.Inch The album title Inch'FlictedInch relates to this strange time in which we live, when the world is basically, well, 'flicted!Inch Album Tracks 1.
