Release Notes:
Last fall, we spent some time on the phone with Strokes
guitarist and solo artist Albert Hammond, Jr. just as he'd
begun to mix his second solo album. Hammond told us just about
everything he could about the then-unfinished LP, including
the strict recording schedule and his tight-knit crew of
collaborators (including Matt Romano, Marc Philippe Eskenazi,
and Josh Lattanzi).
Flash forward a season or so and out comes all the rest. ┐C≤mo
Te Llama?, Hammond's latest solo offering, is due July 7 in
the UK and July 8 in the U.S. from RCA/RED. The 13-track
affair features a string quartet, a little piano from Sean
Lennon on the instrumental "Spooky Couch", and, as ever, the
sound of guitar strap meeting leather jacket. It also includes
one of the best song titles of the year: "Feed Me Jack Or: How
I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Peter Sellers".
Hammond's got no tour dates to speak of at present, though his
exhaustive schedule in the wake of Yours to Keep leads one to
believe he'll get out there plenty for the new one.
As for that other band Albert finds himself in from time to
time, well, let's not force the issue. Fellow Stroke Nikolai
Fraiture recent hopped on the Strokes' website and posted a
little non-update about the band's follow up to 2006's First
Impressions of Earth. ""I'm still looking very forward to a
fourth album release," Fraiture wrote, echoing the sentiments
of many. "We just need to work out a few technical kinks..."
