This 1996 record is really a Mark Kozelek solo album recorded after being dropped by 4AD while looking for a new record label. Another 2015 reissue,a 70 minute double album with a gatefold cover these songs are half acoustic with others using electric guitar for the first time although all are pretty slow in tempo. With his usual subject matter of failed relationships some songs like “Have You Forgotten”,”Trailways”,”Priest Alley Song”,and “Revelation Big Sur” feature just an acoustic guitar and Mark’s low, somewhat monotone voice. “Song For A Blue Guitar” brings to mind Mazzy Stars “Fade Into You” with Stephanie Finch adding some background vocals. “I Feel The Rain Fall” has a Country of Bluegrass sound to it. Listening to the two long electric songs you would think you were listening to Neil Young and Crazy Horse. “Make Like Paper” has a bit of feedback in it and some loud guitar. “Silly Love Songs” ,one of three covers on the record, has a long guitar intro before the vocals totally reconstructed. There is also an electric version of “Long Distance Runaround” which was done acoustically on their last record this one more faithful to the orignal with a guitar fadeout. The car’s “All Mixed Up” is another cover given the Red House Painters treatment, slowing it down and changing the tune.
