Reckless Records 11/22/24, 11/29/24, 12/5/24 NEW RELEASES
We still have some black friday titles in stock. If you search “Black Friday 2024” you can see what’s left. We still have plenty of the Olivia Rodrigo, some of the Beatles 3” records with the carrying case & more Billie Eilish & Grateful Dead on the way
CAN – Live in Keele 1977 LP/CD (Mute)
Live In Keel 1977 is a legendary CAN bootleg & it’s been cleaned up & released as the alleged final release in the live archive series. This late period gig shows the band at their most playful with Jamaican bassist Rosko Gee (TRAFFIC) on bass which freed up Holger to make a bunch of noise & weird sounds. The results are incredibly funky, almost electric Miles funky. RECOMMENDED.
KIM DEAL – Nobody Loves You More LP/CD (4AD)
We honestly couldn’t be more excited for this solo KIM DEAL debut, many years in the making and following THE BREEDERS’ 2018 return – as well as their tour support of OLIVIA RODRIGO – both of which thrust DEAL and her bandmates back into the public eye. Some of the oldest recordings here stretch back to 2011, as well as a lot of recordings with STEVE ALBINI at Electrical Audio in 2022. “Nobody Loves You More” is an arresting combo of chamber pop, heartfelt balladry & dub experimentation, all tied together by DEAL’s recognizable voice (which doesn’t appear to have changed a bit). Featuring help from BREEDERS bandmates KELLEY DEAL and JIM MacPHERSON among others, this comes OBVIOUSLY RECOMMENDED!
MINOR THREAT – 1ST 7” (Dischord)
One of the most legendary hardcore singles (or singles in any genre really) has finally been reissued in 7” form by Dischord in 2024. We’re not sure how long these will last so get em while they’re hot!
PAPA M – Ballads of Harry Houdini LP (Drag City)
During down time from touring as the live guitarist for GANG OF FOUR, David Pajo wrote, recorded & mastered these new songs. Pajo’s voice keeps getting more & more gravelly like a younger Tom Waits & there’s some fun, almost kraut rock esque instrumentals. David’s such a gifted musician & his records are always worth checking out.
JEFF PARKER – Way Out of Easy LP/CD (International Anthem)
If you were around in the 2000s you might have seen one of Jeff Parker’s week night residency gigs at Rodan in Wicker Park. Those were great gigs with revolving line-ups & cool guest appearances. Fast forward to 2016, Jeff started a residency at the ETA venue in Highland Park in L.A. Originally starting out with standards, Jeff & the ETA 4tet band gradually expanded their sound into lengthy compositions & jams.In 2023 they recorded one of their sets not knowing that ETA would soon face a similar fate as Chicago’s Rodan & shut its doors. Anna Butterss leads a lot of the songs with solid, repetitive bass lines & Jeff’s flowing leads & Josh Johnson’s almost Ethio jazz influenced alto sax melodies make for a wonderful late 2024 release. RECOMMENDED.
TRISTWCH Y FENYWOD – Tristwch Y Fenywod LP (Night School)
One of our most anticipated records of the year is finally here. The Leeds trio TRISTWCH Y FENYWOD (“The Sadness of Women”) consists of two zithers, bass guitar & drum machine with lyrics sung in Welsh. The result sounds like a lost 4AD band recently uncovered like the first DEAD CAN DANCE album, the darkest CURE songs, THIS MORTAL COIL, COCTEAU TWINS & later things like TROPIC OF CANCER or INCA ORE. The whole record is truly amazing. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION POSSIBLE!
