Gooding
"Little America"
Includes a song in special features of Alfonso Cuaran's "CHILDREN OF MEN"- the 1st half is score from GOODING's little America DVD- second half is instrumental fusion/world beat. Dusty Road Blues- Swampy slides- Melancholy ballads, love and loss.
One of a series of ecopaks featuring studio recordings from 98-04- Little America is almost a double album, featuring score from the band's DVD documentary of the same name, and a handful of guitar based b-sides filling second half of this 21 track recording with a more experimental and fusion side than any of his previous lps.
The musicianship is stellar- and this record is an interesting departure from GOODING's typically dark and electronic solo records. This album was made entirely by drums, bass, various 6 and 12 string guitars and some very funny narrations from a band that spends it's life on the road. You can hear the midwest in these tracks- dusty roads, wide open fields, and the wind kicking up the dirt.
Fans of ry cooder, clapton, santana, satriani and daniel lanois should rejoice as some of the songs in the back half feature incredible guitar playing and very open ended sonic exploration.
The song "The Man Who Lost Everything" was used in the special features of the DVD - CHILDREN OF MEN.
