Strapping Fieldhands - Gobs On The Midway - Singles 1991-95 LP [Maizey]


Singles from these fantastic, out of time oddballs!

Self-released by Bob & Jacy from the band!



Gobs on the Midway” collects some of the earliest small-format output of Philadelphia’s mighty Strapping Fieldhands, and this first ever vinyl edition serves as both the single best place for a novice to dive in or a handy device for old fans with either too little patience for endless side-flipping or a lack of operational cd player. You can track the band's evolution in chronological order, from their beginnings as a duo crafting creaky acoustic Appalachian Gothic to the double-drumming, boozily romantic swirling psych pop monster they became. Each and every song is a glorious jumble of the haphazard and the innovative, bound by dazed melodies and the knowledge that nobody else could possibly sound like them. Includes printed inner with Bob Malloy's lyrical magic for all to behold.
