PHOSPHORESCENT - Live At The Music Hall (3LP+mp3)

Recorded over four nights at The Music Hall of Williamsburg, this triple LP is a veritable best-of from a band at the height of their performative powers. Featuring scorching renditions of the best-loved songs of the Phosphorescent catalog, from "Los Angeles" to "Song for Zula", Phosphorescent delivers a live album for all-time. The shows featured the full line up of Matthew Houck (Voice, Guitar, Piano), Rustine Bragaw (Bass, Voice), Christopher Marine (Drums), David Torch (Percussion), Jo Schornikow (Organ, Voice), Scott Stapleton (Piano, Voice), Ricky Ray Jackson (Pedal Steel, Guitar, Voice). This is far from a quick cash-in live album - in fact, it should should perhaps be seen as the ultimate Phosphorescent record, taking the recordings that make the studio album to a whole new level. Once Houck had pieced together the tracks, he and album mixer John Agnello worked through the tracks, mixing them to truly represent that amazing Phosphorescent sound - one part cowboy bravado, one part wounded master. This album should be considered an addition to the pantheon of classic live records - The Who's "Live at Leeds", Frampton "Comes Alive", Neil Young's "Rust Never Sleeps", The Band's "The Last Waltz", Bob Marley's "Live", Cheap Trick's "Live at the Budokan" - like those, it is a defining moment in the catalogue of Phosphorescent. The 3xLP version comes in a triple-gatefold LP. Comes with album download Record Label: Dead Oceans Style: Independent
