Banhart, Devendra - Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Release:2007 1-900-2 ComptonNEW VINYL LP ON XL RECORDINGS 2016 2 X 180 GRAM VINYL. Recorded in Topanga Canyon in the Santa Monica mountains. Neil Young lived there while recording "After The Gold Rush" and the area has also been home to Emmylou Harris, Taj Mahal, Joni Mitchell, Mick Fleetwood, and members of The Doors. Those ghosts inhabit the sound and vibe of these recording sessions. Banhart's whole "freak folk" tag is gone, replaced with this classic, gorgeous rock album.
