Shaboozey - Where I've Been, Isn't Where I'm Going - Vinyl

1xLP, Gatefold Jacket, Black Vinyl, Protective Poly-lined Sleeves, Marketing Sticker

Rising multi-media artist Shaboozey intends to build his own world. Determined to carve his own lane in the Alt-Country / Hip-Hop space; he crafts a sound that pays homage to a cast of traditional Western influences, such as Bob Dylan, Lead Belly, Johnny Cash, and Leonard Cohen, while looking into the future of what the two genres have yet to introduce. Remaining true to his Virginia roots, Shaboozey hopes to continue the region's long-standing tradition of producing some of the most prolific creatives of the new millennium. This time through elevating the scope of contemporary hip-hop and introducing a modern Americana culture to a global audience. Fresh off of his inclusion in the groundbreaking Beyonce album, Cowboy Carter, of which he was the only featured artist to appear twice, Shaboozey is set to release his own album, Where I've Been, isn't Where I'm Going. An album that has been years in the making, it includes standout singles "Let It Burn," "Vegas," "Anabelle," & the infectiously fun singalong anthem "A Bar Song (Tipsy)." Millions of streams later, and appearances on esteemed programs such as COLORS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Shaboozey is set to become the new face of modern American country music.

Indie Exclusive - Vince Guaraldi�s score for �A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" came out for the first time ever for the special�s 50thanniversary and charted as a top Jazz, soundtrack and children�s album upon its release, selling out all available copies. The complete soundtrack to the celebrated animated holiday television special, written and created by Charles Schulz, directed by Bill Melendez and Phil Roman and produced by Melendez and Lee Mendelson, includes the long-awaited release of many of Guaraldi�s classic compositions and performances along with never-before-heard bonus material.

Newly re-discovered in LMFP�s vaults, the original recording sessions for Vince Guaraldi's beloved soundtrack have been remixed and remastered for audiophiles and Peanuts� fans everywhere. The album includes many previously unreleased tracks, several never heard since the Vince Guaraldi Quintet laid them down for the recording session in 1973. All the songs were remastered from the original 2" 16 track source tapes.

This soundtrack from the 1973 holiday classic includes Guaraldi hits from the original sources like the funky brass filled "Linus and Lucy," "Thanksgiving Theme," and the soulful "Little Birdie." You will hear timbres from instruments that were previously buried in the show mix. Furthermore, there are bonus tracks for "Thanksgiving Interlude" demonstrating how Guaraldi crafted his score for the special; an additional keyboard on "Linus and Lucy;" and Guaraldi whistling the melody for "Is It James or Charlie?"

Beyond the composer's piano playing, the quintet is made up of Mike Clark on drums; Seward McCain (longest touring bassist with Guaraldi - holding down the electric bass at Guaraldi's request); Tom Harrell on trumpet to class up the album; and Chuck Bennett on Trombone. This is some of the funkiest Guaraldi you'll hear as his quintet leaned into the East Bay Sound, a type of funk that Mike Clark helped pioneer in the early �70s. Guaraldi even lends his bluesy voice to introduce Woodstock with "Little Birdie." The album was remix engineered by Terry Carleton, restored and mastered by Vinson Hudson, and produced by Sean and Jason Mendelson. All versions include liner notes by Sean Mendelson and artwork from the original special. This Indie Exclusive repressing comes in a limited and exclusive Purple Jelly Bean Purple variant.

Willie Nelson is now in his 7th decade as a songwriter, performer and recording artist, but one of his most underrated talents is song interpretation. Over his career he has tackled songs from across the world of music, making each his own. Now for his 76th�studio album and 153rd�album overall as he celebrates his 91st�year, Willie turns his gaze to a collection of songs by rock legends, idiosyncratic singer songwriters, alt-rock heroes, and indie folk artists. The result is a gorgeously cohesive rumination on loss, love, and world-weary hope, perfectly complemented by spare and spooky musical production. Lovingly curated and produced by his son Micah Nelson,�Last Leaf On The Tree�finds Willie covering songs from moody indie rock (Beck), psych alt-pop (The Flaming Lips) and punk-informed folk (Sunny War, Micah�s Particle Kid) to thought-provoking soul jazz (Nina Simone) and lesser-known gems from legends like Tom Waits, Neil Young, Keith Richards, and Warren Zevon. In addition, the album features new takes on one of Willie�s oldest songs (�The Ghost� from 1962) plus a new one penned with Micah (�The Color Of Sound�) that joins Willie�s collection of Zen-soaked classics. In addition to producing, Micah Nelson plays many of the instruments and even designed the album cover. He is joined by a host of celebrated musicians plus guest spots from legendary producer and musician Daniel Lanois, John Densmore of The Doors and harmonica master Mickey Raphael, who has played alongside Willie for over 50 years.

It�s dangerous to put Illiterate Light in a box, especially with the release of their new album, Arches. Are they a guitar-driven indie rock duo? Kaleidoscopic neo-psychedelia? Synth-kissed, harmony-laden folk? What does one do with an album beginning with �fake tits and diet coke,� then pivoting to train derailments in rural Ohio and never-ending black holes? These prolific farmers-turned-rockers have captured the energy of their live shows�fans crowd-surfing, moshing, crying, and crooning�and infused it into their latest release.

�We�ve always been shape shifters, moving between heavy, dark distortion and gentle sweet fingerpicking, writing aggressive songs, introspective songs, and love songs, exploding and embracing,� reflects singer-guitarist Jeff Gorman. �Smashing it all together used to feel strange, but now there's a glue between everything we do. Our fans get it. They care less about genre. All they care about is feeling. And that�s all we care about. Are you alive or not?�
Illiterate Light�s third album, Arches, is not a passageway but an arrival. �We�re no longer striving to define a sound,� said drummer Jake Cochran. �We�re leaning into sides of ourselves that have felt off-limits, sticking to what feels right rather than concerning ourselves with comparison.� Out November 1 via Thirty Tigers, the record is bursting with thunderous anthems, biting lyrics, and lush harmonies.

The band originated in the Shenandoah Valley in 2015 when multi-instrumentalists Gorman and Cochran began playing music together while working on an organic farm. Eventually, they left the farm to focus on music, adopting the moniker Illiterate Light from a Wilco lyric. After several years of non-stop touring, they signed with Atlantic Records and released their eponymous full-length debut in late 2019. Two years later, they signed with Thirty Tigers and, in 2023, issued their critically acclaimed LP, Sunburned. Shortly after, they released two additional EPs, making Arches their fourth release in two years.
Arches was recorded in two very different locations: small-town Appalachia at Gorman�s home studio and Hollywood, CA at Sunset Sound with producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Strokes, Beck, The Killers). �We wanted the best of both worlds,� says Gorman. �We spent several days with Joe at Sunset. To record vocals in the same live room as so many of my heroes�Neil Young, Paul McCartney, Dylan�was unreal. I knew I was in a holy place.� The LA session was paired with sessions in Virginia, where Gorman and Cochran co-produced the bulk of the record with longtime collaborator Danny Gibney. In their hometown, they experimented with soaring instrumental journeys and had friends sit in on the sessions to keep things lively.

�Having our community stop by the sessions kept us on our toes�we haven�t been able to do that in the past. It helped connect us to the feeling of our live show,� recalls Cochran. Illiterate Light�s live performances, described by the Washington Post as �massive,� feature Gorman on one foot, hammering bass on a foot-pedal synth, shredding big guitar riffs, and spitting out song after song while Cochran matches Gorman harmony for harmony, dancing with his standing drum kit, teetering on the edge of the stage only to dive head first into his next solo.

Arches is the closest you can get to their live show, with heavier songs like �I Ride Alone� and �Bloodlines� encapsulating the best of the writhing, uninhibited front-row experience. The keystone of the album, �Norfolk Southern,� crashes in with Gorman belting, �Here comes the Norfolk Southern / It's off the tracks / and heading for you,� with Cochran chanting, �break, break, break, break� to the ghost of the train that derailed in 2023 in East Palestine, Ohio, releasing 10,000 gallons of hazardous materials into the atmosphere. The song also serves as a metaphor for Gorman�s own turbulent feelings. �I certainly wanted to shine a light on the environmental catastrophe. But strangely, some days I feel just like that Norfolk Southern, barreling out of control at warp speed.�
Gorman lets the lyrics take control. Showing up relentlessly, day after day, to his home studio dubbed �The Bookhouse� (a tribute to David Lynch's Twin Peaks), he can�t predict what will arise. For the album's first track, �Payphone,� the opening lyrics were a surprise to Gorman: �Fake tits and diet coke / Full of undefeated hope / You are the only one I trust.� The jangly and groovy album opener is a pep talk between a woman named Big Red and her man as he faces crippling self-doubt and is self-medicating. She comforts him during a time of despair on a phone call that continues to drop.

Another relationship study, �Montauk,� is a cold beachside dance under the full moon inspired by the central question in Gorman�s favorite movie, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. �Do we go for it again�even though we're destined to fail?� he asks. �For me, the answer is a resounding yes.�
�All the Stars Are Burning Out� continues in that reflective vein. �It�s a throwback song, about getting high, going for a drive, dreaming up your future. You�re looking at that wide open black sky of bright stars, and they�re so beautiful and inspiring, and they make you want to follow your dreams. And yet all those stars eventually burn out. It�s a song about going for it even though life is impermanent and full of change,� Gorman said.

The saying goes, �arches never sleep.� Designed to distribute weight evenly, arches naturally rebalance as the structure around them shifts over time. Illiterate Light�s Arches exists within this metaphor in many ways. The album marks a period of artistic strength, a balancing act of identity and possibility. To listen to Arches is to plant yourself within the arch, to stand in the threshold between two worlds and gaze into Gorman and Cochran�s constant motion forward.
