MICK KARN - Each Eye A Path (Lp) (LP)

Kscope are set to release ''Each Eye A Path'' from Mick Karn, former bassist with Japan/Rain Tree Crow/Dalis Car, for the first time on vinyl. Originally released in 2001 on Medium Productions, Mick Karn's own label, this powerfully inventive album was Mick Karn's 5th solo album and features Mick on vocals and a variety of instruments as well as some typically tasteful contributions from Steve Jansen, who along with mixing the album contributed additional drums and percussion. These uniquely adventurous & evocative tracks, written and arranged between 1995 and 1999, show Karn's yearning to go back to the basics of writing, without the luxury of any modern recording technology - the result is very minimal in its actual instrumentation, yet often rich by the sheer density of their use, an album of mood swings, darkness often replaced by light, melancholy thoughts by hope. This is Mick Karn at his most intimate and unfettered.
