Kurt Vile - Wakin On A Pretty Daze (Yellow Vinyl)

MATADOR - OLE998LP

2LP 10th anniversary Matador revisionist history yellow vinyl.

In 2023, Kurt Vile is making numbers count. Just last month, Matador Records presented the iconic Philadelphia songwriter with a (vegan) cheesesteak trophy to commemorate the 100-millionth stream of "Pretty Pimpin" on Spotify. Today, though, Matador would like to draw your attention to another significant KV digit: The 10th anniversary of his fifth full-length and first 2xLP, 'Wakin on a Pretty Daze' (2013).

To celebrate this milestone, Matador have brought the record back on yellow vinyl.

Where previous albums alternated between gorgeous fingerpicking and heavy guitar workouts, 'Wakin' blended the two into dreamy and expansive songs that frequently stretched well out beyond the five-minute mark. Back then Matador said: "It's a record that would have sounded great 30 years ago, sounds great today, and will still sound great 30 years from now." Ten years down the line, Matador are still confident that 'Wakin' will deliver the goods - yesterday, today, and in 2043.
