TURNPIKE TROUBADOURS - The Turnpike Troubadours (Gatefold LP Jacket)

DESCRIPTIONVinyl LP pressing. The universe feels real on The Turnpike Troubadours because the band resolved to let the album happen on it's own time. Moving out to the Prairie Sun recording complex in the desert country of Cotati, California, setting up in former chicken coops converted into studios, they metaphorically unplugged the clock and worked studiously through 12-hour sessions, wrapping up only when each story and every note rang true. There's "7 Oaks", recounting a life made desperate by poverty, made more vivid by an incongruous hoedown accompaniment. "Bossier City," focused on a sad mill worker who blows his pay regularly on gambling and booze.Tracks1 The Bird Hunters2 The Mercury3 Down Here4 Time of Day5 Ringing in the Year6 A Little Song7 Long Drive Home8 Easton & Main9 7 Oaks10 Doreen11 Fall Out of Love12 Bossier City Format: Vinyl Remember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from our official JocoRecords website!
