Another show taped by SR of two outstanding Captured Tracks artists, one of course being The Soft Moon, which have been amply covered elsewhere in this here blog, and the other are the excellent Craft Spells, playing selections from their new album 'Idle Labor' for this record release party.


Again, the quality of these recordings should cause your jaw to drop and hit the floor, they put my own meager efforts to shame.  Enjoy!

All I have is joyous-sounding music, the quality of these, as captured by kind contributor and fellow Captured Tracks fan SR with his Schoeps mics, has to be heard to be believed.  You guys are in for a treat!
