Gold (Col Vinyl)

GOLD comes in a deluxe gold foil printed gatefold LP jacket, with a two-sided insert sheet, green & gold obi strip, and dome-patterned inner-sleeves. And, in addition to our Classic Black vinyl version, a limited-edition Eye of the Sun color vinyl version will be available to indie retailers only, for the first pressing only. GOLD is a sprawling double album that finds DePlume expressing both sides of his artistic character beautifully: (1) an articulate singer and songwriter who invokes the melodious crooning of Donovan as much as Devendra Banhart or Syd Barrett, whose tunes are almost like mini-sermons, full of existential comedy and spiritual enlightenment; and (2) a brilliant composer of simple, soothing, and viscerally nourishing instrumental melodies, with a gift for expanding them into intrepid collective improvisations, led by a delicate and distinguished saxophone tone that conjures the fluttery sweetness of the great Ethiopique Getatchew Mekurya.
