About this item

The debut collaborative album from world-renowned UK producer, Kieran Hebden (Four Tet), and American guitarist, William Tyler, '41 Longfield Street Late ‘80s' is inspired by their shared deep connection to 1980s American country and folk artists such as Lyle Lovett, Nancy Griffith, Joe Ely and David Grissom. A cover of Lyle Lovett's song 'If I Had a Boat' is the most literal pull from this ‘80s country sound, accompanied by soft synth tones.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: A perfect mix here of William Tyler's warm, athletic guitar playing and Hebden's organic, off-the-grid electronic production resulting in an album that sits easily in the canon of either artist, but is probably just as much reinventing a sound as it goes. A gorgeously immersive journey.
