Produktinformationen "Wreckless Eric - Leisureland"
Deluxe Vinyl is limited to 500 copies worldwide, blue vinyl, numbered.
Wreckless Eric needs little introduction – he wrote and recorded the
classic Whole Wide World and had a hit with it back in 1977. Since then
it's been a hit for countless other artists including The Monkees, Cage
The Elephant and Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day. Eric’s version
featured in the 2022 Expedia / Superbowl / Ewan MacGregor travel ad, and
the Cage The Elephant version is the new theme tune for the podcast
Smartless.
He went on to release twenty something albums in forty something years
under various names. This new album, Leisureland, marks a return to his
more ramshackle world of recording – guitars and temperamentally
unpredictable analogue keyboards, beat-boxes and loops in conjunction
with a real drummer, Sam Shepherd, who he met in a local coffee shop in
Catskill, New York. He was delighted to find that Sam lived around the
corner and could easily drop by to put drums on newly recorded tracks.
The recording methodology may have been Contemporary American but the
subject matter is almost entirely British. It also contains more
instrumentals than any of his previous albums.
