Beet, Maize & Corn album for sale Product Description

Beet, Maize & Corn album for sale by High Llamas was released Oct 07, 2003 on the Drag City label. Tied together by a series of lush instrumental passages, this 2003 High Llamas song cycle innovatively connects musical styles more associated with California dreaming to its main theme of the city's encroachment on the countryside. Where the storied chronicler of British urban life Ray Davies once used rock & roll combined with a simple, music-hall-type delivery to make his point, here the Llamas' leader, Sean O'Hagan, takes the music of Brian Wilson, Van Dyke Parks, and Burt Bacharach as his foundation, lending his tales of urbanization a high-gloss sheen as well as a touch of Sixties magic. Beet, Maize & Corn CD music contains a single disc with 12 songs. ...See Full Description
