NEW VINYL LP ON RCA 2011
2 X 180 GRAM VINYL.
In 1997, Foo Fighters teamed with alt-rock production cornerstone Gil Norton to make their best album, The Colour and the Shape. Ten years later, they’ve regrouped with Norton for a disc that’s more sophisticated and diverse, if a tad less rockin’. The curveballs include “Stranger Things Have Happened,” a solo soul-searcher where leader Dave Grohl’s accompanied by just his acoustic guitar and a ticking metronome, and “Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners,” an acoustic guitar duet for Grohl and guest virtuoso Kaki King. Plus “Summers End” tickles the Foos’ classic-rock fetish with a dead-on Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young arrangement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo_Fighters
