The Mountain Goats - Jenny From Thebes - VINYL LP

Jenny from Thebes began it's life as many albums by The Mountain Goats do, with John Darnielle playing the piano until a lyric emerged. That lyric, InchJenny was a warrior / Jenny was a thief / Jenny hit the corner clinic begging for relief,Inch became InchJenny III,Inch a song which laid down a challenge he'd never taken up before writing a sequel to one of his most beloved albums All Hail West Texas. Recorded at Tulsa, Oklahoma's legendary The Church Studio with Grammy-winning producer/engineer Trina Shoemaker, Jenny from Thebes is a rich collection of showtunes, pushing Darnielle as a vocalist and The Mountain Goats as a band, broadening their sonic palette once again by leaning into influences like Godspell, Jim Steinman, and The Cars.
