Chris Watson - The Rail Trail (Room40)

WHAT THE COVER LOOKS LIKE:

---

WHAT WE SAY:

There is no symphony as grand as nature's & few people that capture it quite like Chris Watson. Check out the incredible sounds of Australia's wilderness & perhaps consider a purchase to support the bushfire recovery effort. Bucolic sounds for urban sophisticates from Room40 & it sure beats the sound of traffic noise.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAYS:

From Chris Watson...

The sunset had left us in limbo. Lewis and I were hanging over the reeds on a bend in Blackbutt creek. One hand grasping an overhanging branch whilst with the other I clung to Lewis by his belt as he hung out over the water arcing a microphone pole towards the source. The frog chorus picked up, our conversation ceased, and we tuned into the darkness.

NB : All monies raised from this edition will be donated to the Australian Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery for the Australia Bushfires. Room40 will match all donations. It has been a hellish summer, we're glad to support the Red Cross in their efforts!

Thanks dear Chris!
