2002, Drag City
Moth is the name of the new Mick Turner LP/CD the third in a series of Mick Turner LPs that have graced our sweet world since 1997. Yes, it's been a golden half decade for Mick Turner — and that doesn't even count all his other years as an artist with the Dirty Three and others - and to celebrate, he's got a new record, a new tour, and god knows what else (we don't ask too many questions). The sound of Moth is also new — a new take on the instrumental style of music that we feel is the sole dominion of Mick Turner. Starting with guitar, and adding sparing touches of other sounds, including his signature guitar loops, to get that swayingly nautical feel going, Mick's sound ebbs and flows from album to album. Moth is definitely a low-tide moment, as each of his pieces is stripped back to a new bareness. And beauty, of course. This Moth is for you.
