I can't tell if Aidan Baker is releasing old material and calling it new or producing muddy sounding music on purpose. Much of
Gathering Blue has a basement tapes quality to it, but the reissued material that composes the second LP of this two-LP set is mostly stunning, as is the packaging that accompanies it. Baker might be in need of some quality control when it comes to his latest work, but his back catalog continues to impress me.
