Release Notes:
--------
This is arguably Vic ChesnuttÆs best album yet and certainly his most fully
realised, amply confirming Michael StipeÆs opinion that he is among the top
ten songwriters around. Do you need to know more?
For the record Silver Lake was recorded with a group of musicians that Vic
hadnÆt, in the main, worked with before. The assembled cast, including
players who have worked with Lucinda Williams, Emmylou Harris, Tracy
Chapman and Bob Dylan, provide a rich, textured and multi-layered sound,
captured, in a mostly live situation, in Real Music Studios by Mark Howard.
The sound has a roots setting overall but never allows itself to be pinned
down by any easy definition. And, as ever, ChesnuttÆs singular voice is
front and centre on a collection of keenly observed songs that do
significant justice to StipeÆs claim.
