Field Rexx

A classic DIY release, Field Rexx was made in the sweltering summer of 2004 with no budget amidst the hiss of flies and tape. “Recorded,” according to the liner notes, “at the carny shack, fer shook n timsel on Duke’s shoot-o-matic for tisks & soda & that ol’ broke 4-track that 3-fingrd mike poured Old English on and lit on fire,” Rexx’s warped eclectic pop Americana proves that great songs and performances can transcend squalor and bad album art.  Features archival material of the original Trapper, James Earley, performing snippets of traditional hillbilly tunes.  Field Rexx is Blitzen Trapper's self-released sophomore album originally released in 2005.  It was remastered at the tail end of 2015 and is available on Record Store Day for the first time on vinyl.  A free download code including 3 previously unreleased bonus tracks is included. James & Larry Earley - 0:28Lux & Royal Shopper - 3:22Love I Exclaim! - 1:20Summer Twin - 3:28Cold Gold Diamond - 2:37Concrete Heaven - 5:5340 Stripes - 3:50Asleep for Days - 3:14Dreamers & Giants - 3:32Turkey in The Straw - 0:25Dirty Pearls - 2:08Leopard's Will To Live - 3:31Country Rain - 2:35Moving Minors Over Country Lines - 2:43Love (Reprise) - 1:43
