"It is a tremendous understatement to say that it is with grand excitement that Three Lobed Recordings is proud to announce the release of
Distillation
by D. Charles Speer & the Helix. For the last couple of years we have been continually excited by each of the fruits that have resulted from Speer/Helix collaboration. For our money, 2008's
After Hours
album was one of the best released by anyone.
Distillation
only ups the ante from that prior full length by elaborating upon some of the musical themes from the late 2008
In Madagascar
7". The resulting album presents a tightly focused modern honky tonk quintet more than happy to blur the lines between country, psychedelia and the overall American musical tradition. Consisting on this album of D. Charles Speer (aka Dave Shuford from the No Neck Blues Band and Enos Slaughter), Hans Chew (last seen providing some ripping piano accompaniment on 'Fishtown Flower' from Jack Rose's
The Black Dirt Sessions
), Marc Orleans (Enos Slaughter, Sunburned Hand of The Man), Jason Meagher (No Neck Blues Band, Coachfingers) and Rob Gregory (the Suntanama), the Helix are a seriously experienced and talented crew.
Distillation
was recorded over time between the winter and summer of 2008 at the band's home away from home, Meagher's Black Dirt Studios in Westtown, New York. Includes a limited edition glass-mastered CD titled
Of Snow Smoked Moose
presenting a full, killer live set from the full band recorded on April 25, 2008 at the Turf Club in St. Paul, MN. This CD is not available separately." Gatefold sleeve.
