Red Brocade

Double vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold jacket with inner sleeves including liner notes by Kevin Junior (The Chamber Strings). For the first time on vinyl, the one considered by many as Nikki Sudden's best album ever Red Brocade, originally released in 1999. Featuring members of Jacobites, The Chamber Strings, Wilco, etc. In 1997, British musician Nikki Sudden traveled to Chicago to work with The Chamber Strings. While there, the two parties realized that they were creatively simpatico, and soon began work on an album, a baker's dozen of thoughtful, occasionally introspective, and superbly written songs, which would appear in 1999 as Red Brocade. It's mellow singer-songwriter fare, some might call it "alt country", and that Wilco's Jeff Tweedy pops up here should give you a sense of what you're getting, as sonically, all the songs here could have been Wilco tracks.
