Tindersticks – Simple Pleasures (2LPs, Music On Vinyl)

180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl pressing. Features a gatefold sleeve and includes a bonus LP with 12-bonus tracks. Tindersticks is an English alternative rock band formed in 1991 by Stuart Staples Dave Boulter Neil Fraser Dickon Hinchliffe Al Macaulay and John Thompson. In 1993 they released their first self-titled album and the following years they recorded several albums documentaries and film soundtracks. During the 90s Tindersticks stood apart with their dark literary lyrics and melancholy orchestrations and were a different breed as both the British indie scene and the Brit-Pop sound dominated the UK charts. Their fourth album Simple Pleasures steered the group into snappier and lighter songs however the liner notes proved that the recording process was a painstaking experience. The respectful cover of Odyssey s If You re Looking For A Way Out is a perfect example of their new influences by soul gospel and jazz music. This Music On Vinyl Expanded Edition features the original album (9 Tracks) and no less than 12 bonus tracks including Twisted Wheel (which is the demo version of Can We Start Again ) and the Adrian Sherwood remix of I Know That Loving.
