Description
1st Press. Vinyl is Excellent and Cover is VG+ with insert.
NOTES:Actually the work of a person rather than a band, My Dad Is Dead’s voluminous output has plainly explored the troubled waters of the soul, both personal and philosophical. Under his open-to-misinterpretation nom de disc, Cleveland (later transplanted to North Carolina) singer-writer-one-man-band Mark Edwards makes music whose appeal lies largely in its matter-of-fact handling of trauma. Growing steadily in fluency and confidence, Edwards, who writes, plays and sings with instrumental and vocal help from a floating gene pool of Cleveland musicians (Prisonshake’s Chris Burgess has also produced the bulk of his recordings), makes records that are as comforting as they are harrowing. Let’s Skip the Details shows considerable growth, both lyrically and musically. The instrumental attack has greater bite, and finds Edwards applying subtler melodic devices (on tracks like “Lay Down the Law” and “Boiling Over”) without sacrificing the music’s original tension.
NOTE: Records are graded visually under bright lights only. I do listen to a short portion just to see if a record might have any overbearing surface noise or worse right off the bat. I usually won't list any lps under VG+ but do list some VG records. Grading is SS (Still Sealed)/ Near-Mint/ Excellent/ Very Good Plus/ Very Good.
I combine shipping for a discount when you buy more than 1 vinyl, CD or DVD. Will be listing lots of good stuff the next couple of days.
