10th anniversary edition of Aztec Camera’s classic debut album, ‘High Land, Hard Rain‘. Available on:
- Limited US edition pressed on 180g virgin vinyl with download code
- Comes with bonus 7” featuring rare session tracks and demos
With the original album remastered from the analog tapes (we’ve heard the test pressings and it does laps around the original), this deluxe re-issue does not disappoint.
In his new liner notes for this reissue, Rolling Stone’s David Fricke calls High Land, Hard Rain “ten songs of anxious yearning, romantic urgency, big hurt and hard-won learning, distilled into compact dramas of buckskin-folk jangle and skewed-pop elegance.” We call it one of the greatest debut albums in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. That it was written and conceived by mastermind Roddy Frame when he was just Eighteen Years Old, well… that just defies all logic and sense of fair play.
