Here in the UK, we're not as used to the sun as some of you lucky folks in sunnier climes. This album is making an appearance as it's a great "kick back in the sun" record (as well as just being a great record!).Back in 2007, I went to the excellent Primavera Sound with my friends Jeff, Laura, Jody & co. It was/is really a great festival & you can get a full dose of Barcelona while your there as it's not a camping festival, so you stay in the city, which is a culinary treat! You can't argue with the lineup either: Sonic Youth, The Fall, Patti Smith, Comets on Fire, Low, Durutti Column, The Dirty Three, Robyn Hitchcock, White Stripes, The Melvins etc...
Performance of the weekend was from Comets on Fire (me & Jeff thought...), but one of the best things about festivals is coming away having got into some stuff you'd not known before. One of those for me was the stoned bluesy drones of Brightblack Morning Light. On our way back home to the S.Y., we stopped off at Probe Records in Liverpool and picked this one up, as well as a few others. So here it is. Lay back in the sun. xxx
