About This Item
Vinyl LP pressing. Kurt Vile and Steve Gunn collaborated on record in 2015 for their contributions to Three Lobed Recording's Parallelogram series. That previously ornate and limited title is now released in a non limited standing along and outside of that prior collection. The two artists, originally connected by mutual friends and geographic proximity, have long pushed the other's continued artistic development. Despite sharing many live stages over the years, this collaborative album represents the first time that the two have worked together in the studio. Vile's side sees him recast tracks by John Prine (InchWay Back WhenInch) and Randy Newman (InchPretty Boy,Inch featuring some truly electric guitar flourishes from Gunn) as if they were KV originals. The theme of reinvention continues with Vile tearing through a solo banjo rendition of his InchRed ApplesInch (originally from his God Is Saying This To You... LP), re-titled here as InchRed Apples For Tom Scharpling.Inch
