Mojave 3: Spoon And Rafter Vinyl LP - PRE-ORDER
Sold by Turntable Lab
$24.95
"Never ones to sit still, Spoon and Rafter marked a shift for Mojave 3 . While still containing echoes of singer-songwriters and alt-country, the record represents a Technicolor expansion of their palette that utilizes electronics, glockenspiels, melodica, and Beatlesque production. 'It’s quite a bonkers album, really,' says Ian. 'By that stage we had our own studio again on the north Cornish coast in the UK. We had time to pick up different instruments and just faff around. It was quite a process, but it’s my favorite record we did.' 'We sort of entered our Beach Boys phase of Mojave 3,' says Neil, 'where we became more interested in different instrumentation and a fuller sound. Thanks to Mark [Van Hoen] it was the first time we used an early Pro Tools system to edit stuff together, so some of the tracks are much longer and more orchestrated, like ‘Bluebird of Happiness,’ which has three different sections that were all recorded separately and then chopped together.'" - 4AD black vinyl pressing ( please note : actual pressing color and packaging may differ from mock-up photo) limited edition original release year: 2003 music label: 4AD 2026 Pre-Order Policy If you want to order additional items ( including other pre-orders ), please make separate orders.
