Did you fall in love with the song ”Charlie Darwin” as much as I did when I first heard it? Damn, some tunes just wiggle their way into my soul and you can’t get them out with a pair of pliers if you tried, they’ve got barbed ends like a good fish hook. This sweet song is from The Low Anthem, their album which is re-released today, Oh My God Charlie Darwin. It’s been remasterd by Bob Ludwig, whom they describe as “legendary mastering engineer.” It’s got the same 12 tracks of Americana goodness you might have heard when the band self-released it back in September. But don’t miss out on this special issue, the band describes it as sounding “analog, warm and beautiful.”

The answer is yes. Love. But I think the tune Champion Angel may be even a little bit better. Gotta get this reissue.
Ooooh good, I was a bit worried that it had made the rounds and everyone would say, “ho hum, heard it already… next!” So yes, I’m getting the reissue too! You’re always a cheery note on these pages, dear, C&B, xoxox
Thank you dear Tarty, I rather enjoyed that x
Hey! I’m George! Gear!

OK, so’s I, like, ordered the vinyl. And why in the hell does Davy get to be George when I’m a fucking cockateel!? I wanna be Rod Argent.

Love ‘Charlie Darwin’. Gorgeous.
