Calexico - The Black Light (ReIssue)
LP - Standard Edition Black Vinyl (2025 Repress).
The perfect soundtrack for a summer roadtrip in an old car across Death Valley.
“Calexico's musical textures are woven out of a dazzling array of instruments and styles, including mariachi trumpets, countrified pedal steel, Latin jazz percussion, and carnival organ, just to name a few. The songs move at siesta speed, casually looping and loping along, never getting overheated. Bandmates Joey Burns and John Convertino have their hands in so many musical pies--including projects with OP8, Giant Sand, Victoria Williams and Richard Buckner--one wonders how they find the time to create the sun-soaked music of Calexico. But thank God they have.”
