GASTR DEL SOL: We Have Dozens of Titles 3LP Box Set (Drag City) Signed Copies!!
Released in May 2024, we just scored a few more signed copies of this boxed set.
Hyper-limted and only the John Hancock of Dr. Grubbs (no O’Rourke).
From our very own Rich Mudge:
“A reimagined history of Gastr del Sol compiling uncollected studio recordings (from compilations and 7”s) interspersed with previously unreleased live recordings. Mentioned more than any other band on the Drag City imprint, customers inquire about Gastr del Sol and this 3 LP box set hopefully portends represses coming soon.
Gastr del Sol initially formed from Bastro who were already moving away from tense post punk to slower tempos, less distortion and more open experimental forms and sensibilities.
With Jim O’Rourke coming into the fold the experimental side took full flight, embracing the many avant-garde within the avant-garde, musique concrète and Americana (who dares cover John Fahey?).
The Drag City press release sums up this collection best, ‘a spacious ode to the flux that was their métier; a further set of reinventions.’”
Can’t say it enough, a total game changer, this project. Grateful to have witnessed this music in real time. Equally grateful to have another window on the project today!!
