The High Llamas - Snowbug
After the high times and critical mass arrangements of the previous two records, ‘Snowbug’ exuded a breezy, spare, morning-after vibe. Edified by all manner of world-folk, classic Brazilian pop and the first volumes of the ‘Ethiopiques’ comp, the Llamas recorded in London with Fulton Dingley and in Chicago with Bundy K. Brown and Jim O’Rourke engineering at Electrical Audio and John McEntire mixing at Soma. ‘Snowbug’ is an understated, underrated gem.
