About This Item

In late 2019, Kurt Wagner was experimenting with something new, something that would eventually reveal itself as Lambchop's Showtunes. By taking simple guitar tracks and converting them into MIDI piano tracks, InchSuddenly I discovered I could 'play' the piano,Inch he says. InchIt was a revelation that from those conversions, I was able to manipulate each note and add, subtract, arrange the chords and melody into a form that didn't have any of the limitations I had with my previous methods of writing with a guitar.Inch Removing these limitations led to a surprising new sound, something akin to show tunes but with edges sanded down and viewed through Kurt's own specific lens. InchIn general, it's a genre I was none too fond of,Inch he admits, Inchwith the exceptions of a few Great American Songbook-type of stuff or some of the works of artists like Tom Waits or early Randy Newman or even Gershwin or Carmichael. I'd always wanted to make songs with a similar feel, but my skills were limited until now.InchInchNow that the door reopened up, I realized that anything is possible given time and space to do it,Inch Kurt says. This led to the addition of one more key player, an effortlessly natural fit and one that for many will feel overdue. For the first time, longtime friend and collaborator James McNew of Yo La Tengo joins on upright bass. InchFor as long as I've known him, James McNew has been a like-minded artist and one who I've dreamed of working with,Inch Kurt says. InchThis seemed like the right fit for what he does, and he graciously agreed to be part of this creation. For many years, I've longed for what an upright bass could add to our sound. Now with that, this work was complete.Inch Album Tracks 1. A Chef's Kiss 2. Drop C 3. Papa Was a Rolling Stone Journalist 4. Fuku 5. Unknown Man 6. Blue Leo 7. Impossible Meatballs 8. The Last Benedict
