Holy Hive - Big Crown Vaults Vol. 3 - Holy Hive - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing. Big Crown Vaults Vol. 3 Holy Hive digs into the treasure trove of unreleased recordings and pulls some that never saw their way to vinyl and in all honesty, this is not even half of what is in there. These recordings were made during their two album sessions largely, some were recorded before they even signed to Big Crown. The compilation kicks off with the tune that started it all on the tag, their smashing cover of The Invincibles InchThis Is My StoryInch that was previously only on a 7Inch. InchLove It Is Not LoveInch, InchMiddle Of The NightInch, InchCelesteInch, and their cover of InchKingdom Of The SunInch all feature guest vocals by Shanny of The Shacks who had started playing bass with them at their live shows and sitting in on a lot of the recording sessions. InchThe ShameInch features Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes on bass and El Michels Affair on flute, the latter also plays on InchA Perfect SpaceInch. At one point in time the would turn the live show over to Paul Spring who would perform the Irish folk tune InchRed Is The RoseInch in a traditional style with just him singing and playing acoustic guitar and then launch into their rendition of the song that is on Float Back To You. That stripped down version is featured here on Vaults Vol. 3. The comp finishes poetically with InchEnd Of TimeInch and it is unlikely that we will ever the rest of what is sitting in the vault.
