Michael Hurley's first new studio record in 12 years features eleven songs recorded in Astoria, Oregon during the brief time of year when the foxgloves bloom. Hurley had been workshopping the set at home for the past few years. Friends and collaborators came into town and contributed from afar. The songs are lifted by violin, organ, upright bass, banjo, percussion - but at the center, of course, is the enigmatic Snock, whose songs have grown only more unique and more 57 years after his debut album (First Songs - Folkways, 1964). It could only be Snock. Heartbreaking, heartfelt, easy and carefree. The glorious opener \"Are You Here For The Festival\" - punctuated by a pair of violins - came to him while working in the garden. \"Little Blue River\" floats by on a cloud. The haunting \"Jacob's Ladder\" sounds beamed in from another era. Or dimension. Foxgloves is as comforting and wonderful as any Hurley record that has come before itVinyl LP pressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre You Here for the Festival\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Alabama\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Se Fue en la Noche\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blondes and Redheads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Is the Closest Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Boulevard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Knocko the Monk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jacob's Ladder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Little Blue River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Beer Ale and Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lush Green Trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Quarter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45005598884061,"sku":"843563144770","price":22.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4015937-2758609.jpg?v=1727242654"},{"product_id":"michael-hurley-blue-hills","title":"Michael Hurley- Blue Hills (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn this LP we find Michael Hurley stretching out on six longer-than-usual compositions that are heartbreaking \u0026amp; beautiful as anything he's ever done.\n\nSide one features Hurley on a creaky pump organ and a Hammond organ.

It arrives just in the nick of time for the rabid Snockophile. A batch of new vittles and encores of some of his classic tunes, Ancestral Swamp bubbles with laid-back ease and tremolodic goodness. Most songs have the simplest of arrangements: Hurley singing solo, accompanied by his guitar, Wurlizter organ, or fiddle. Tara Jane OONeil helps lend a nice touch to 'El Dorado', and Snock calls upon frequent past accomplices Dave Reisch and Louie Longmeyer for their graceful touch on sleepy winners like 'New River Blues' and 'Gamblin' Charlie'. As with all Hurley's albums, once one sets the needle down, one is put in a certain peace and place.
