Old Ramon, the sixth
Red House Painters album, recorded in the fall of 1997 through
the spring of 1998, was intended for release that summer. But the
mega-major label merger catastrophe that left hundreds of bands homeless
spared few. Red House Painters looked
for a brief moment like survivors, but subsequent delays eventually
turned into permanent layoff. Old Ramon
sat in limbo and grew into legend as another great, lost album only
the privileged few would ever properly hear. They’ve unintentionally
put the ‘wait’ back into the term “long-awaited.”
Singer Mark Kozelek kept busy with
a series of other projects. He served as producer for Take
Me Home: A Tribute to John Denver. As archivist for the 4AD
Red House Painters Retrospective
album, assembling rarities and live tracks. As solo artist with several
tracks on the Shanti Project album,
and two albums Rock n’ Roll Singer
and What’s Next to the Moon,
a collection of AC/DC songs reinterpreted. As live performer, touring
the United States, United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden and his first ever
shows in South Korea. As film scorer for the independent film Last
Ball. And, finally, as actor in Cameron
Crowe’s critically acclaimed
Almost Famous. |
