Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – The Boatmans Call (2011 remaster) vinyl

Heavyweight 180 gram vinyl. Vinyl transfer approval overseen by Mick Harvey in Summer 2014 and cut at Abbey Road Studios. This edition, personally approved by Nick Cave, is finally available again on its original format. The Boatmans Call is the tenth studio album by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, released in 1997. The album, which is entirely piano-based and a departure from the bands post-punk catalogue, remains one of the most critically acclaimed releases of Nick Caves career. Recording for the album began in London in mid 1996, with the bulk recorded at Sarm West and further recordings done at Abbey Road Studios. Moving away from full-band arrangements and character-based narratives, the albums music and lyrics move towards the more intimate sound of Caves solo voice accompanied by piano or a few other instruments. The tempo is also generally slow, reflecting many of the moods of the songs. Many of the lyrics seem to reflect on Caves personal relationships and spiritual yearnings at the time of writing.
