The Clouds Hill Tapes Pts. I, II & III

The Clouds Hill Tapes Part I, II and III are 20 new songs produced by Johann Scheerer and performed by Omar Rodríguez López and a range of guest musicians. They are released as a 3 x 12' vinyl box set. It comes with 10 monochrome photographic prints takes during the recording session at Clouds Hill Studio in 2019 .Only very few songwriters and arrangers have succeeded in leaving their mark on several generations with their compositions and their performances.
