The Lemon of Pink (Reissue)

VINYL FORMAT. And so it continued. When multi-instrumentalists and sound enthusiasts Paul de Jong and Nick Zammuto first came together, they surely could not have foreseen their debut album, Thought for Food, becoming such a lauded, genre defying masterpiece. But it was their second album, The Lemon of Pink, that cemented the Books as a pioneering musical force. It would become their biggest-selling album (a feat usurped only by the later album The Way Out), and still stands as perhaps the most beloved album in the Books' unfailingly brilliant catalog. As with the recently reissued Thought for Food, The Lemon of Pink is repackaged with dazzling new artwork and expanded to include lyrics for every song for the first time ever. Carefully and thoughtfully re-mastered from the original mixes by Zammuto at his new studio outside his home in Vermont, The Lemon of Pink now boasts a warmth and clarity that surprisingly reveals an increased harmonic depth.
