{"product_id":"656605142111","title":"GOLDEN SINGS THAT HAVE BEEN SUNG | VINYL RECORD (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe preceding years have been extraordinary for Ryley Walker. In March, his second album, Primrose Green, emerged to critical hosannas from the likes of NPR, Village Voice, Uncut, and Mojo - in the process, earning admiration of musicians who had chalked up no shortage of turntable miles in Walker's life. Robert Plant declared himself a fan - as did double-bass legend Danny Thompson, with whom Ryley would later embark on a British tour. A sprawling tour of the USA around Primrose Green presented a perfect chance to workshop ideas for what would eventually become his third studio album, Golden Sings That Have Been Sung. On the album, \"The Roundabout\" represents a symbolic return to Chicago, while other songs are directly wedded to Ryley's actual return there. Perhaps more than any other song on the record, the somnambulant sun-dappled intimacies of opening track \"The Halfwit In Me\" most audibly bear the imprint of Ryley's improvisational sessions with Wilco multi-instrumentalist, Chicagoan and producer Leroy Bach, while \"Funny Thing She Said\" is an unflinching study of separation set to a shimmeringly supple ensemble performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WALKER, RYLEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46063889187061,"sku":"656605142111","price":21.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/9325\/5669\/files\/0656605142111.jpg?v=1731298232","url":"https:\/\/thevinylvista.com\/products\/656605142111","provider":"Vinyl Vista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
