From Three Lobed Recordings:
We are writing you now to let you know that Honest Strings, the Jack Rose tribute is now available for purchase (we mean it this time - sorry for the false alarm last time around). More information follows. Please feel free to pass this around freely. Cory --"HONEST STRINGS: A TRIBUTE TO THE LIFE AND WORK OF JACK ROSE" DOWNLOAD COMPILATION AVAILABLE-- It should come as no secret to anyone who reads these updates that we were pretty shocked about the December passing of our friend Jack Rose. While it has been tough around here and actions are no substitute for the man himself, we have been busy curating a download- only tribute "album" to Jack. This compilation is monstrous and insanely full of good material - it's a very fitting tribute to the man. The compilation, "Honest Strings: A Tribute To The Life And Work Of Jack Rose," is now up and available for sale exclusively from the download portion of the Thrill Jockey site, FINA. This compilation costs $15, an absolute bargain for what you are getting, with 100% of the purchase price will go to Jack's estate. The compilation itself is, get this, six and a half hours long. Yes, you read that right. Follow this direct link http://fina-music.com/catalog/index.html?id=104712 to go to the compilation's location at the FINA store where it is available for sale/download. The list of featured artists is absolutely bonkers, too. Here it is, in no particular order: Bardo Pond D. Charles Speer MV & EE Rick Tomlinson Un Heather Leigh Stuart Leslie Braithwaite Nathan Bowles Joseph Mattson - reading from "Empty The Sun" Sunburned Hand Of The Man Scott Verrastro / Nathan Bowles Pelt No Neck Blues Band Cian Nugent James Toth, Kerry Kennedy and Jason Meagher Cath & Phil Tyler Black Twig Pickers Spiral Joy Band Byron Coley with Son of Earth Alvarius B Hans Chew Six Organs Of Admittance Pigeons Kohoutek Chris Forsyth Hush Arbors Zaika with Paul Flaherty Spectre Folk Zaika with Loren Connors Steve Gunn Bill Nace Luther Dickinson C. Joynes Danny Paul Grody Elisa Ambrogio Jenks Miller Coach Fingers Charlie Parr & Mike Gangloff Lloyd Thayer Langtry We are really proud of how this come came together and hope that you all enjoy it. We miss you, Jack. |
