Electric Mountain - Valley Giant - VINYL LP

Limited pink vinyl LP pressing. Includes . At 78, Swamp Dogg is as sharp of a singer and songwriter as ever. His raunchy yet charismatic sense of humor takes a more forward role on I Need a Job... So I Can Buy More Autotune, with earnestly delivered lyrics about all day S*x and an entire song dedicated to the perils of InchCheating in the Daylight.Inch Many of the record's most charming moments emerge from the juxtaposition of Swamp's left field humor with genuine messages of love, such as InchShe Got That FireInch, which weaves descriptions of imagined S*x acts, including but not limited to an encounter involving edible underwear, in between relatively wholesome proclamations like Inchshe must be an angel on earth,Inch and Inchwhen she looks at you, it's like sunshine from her eyes.Inch I Need a Job... does more than prove that Swamp's still got it, it proves he's still getting better.

Recorded 25 years into their career, Giant Sand's 25th album is a gorgeous and much-celebrated collection of perfectly-crafted, personal songwriting from Howe Gelb. With the exception of one or two wonderfully abrupt and perfectly placed outbursts, it's a gentle rollercoaster traversing the inner thinking of the why's and wherefores of whatever, a meditation on time and the ageing process. Musing on the record, Howe Gelb explains InchOn this LP I show off an acquired appreciation for the simple lyric. Kinda haiku at times, like flamenco verse, or the blues. I can focus more as it's obvious there's only so much time left - that has a production value all it's own.Inch Highlighting their eclectic and esoteric career, this reissue celebrates the band's magnificent, long and winding career. This deluxe reissue features restored artwork and newly penned liner notes from MOJO's Dave Henderson. Giant Sand have been the primary outlet for the stylistic curveballs and sun-damaged songcraft of singer-songwriter Howe Gelb. In four plus decades he's managed to reinvent rock, country, blues, punk, garage, lo-fi, jazz, gospel, avant-garde noise and flamenco gypsy music with his impressionistic imagery and expansive observations of the world.
