{"product_id":"9781501373343","title":"Ed Kuepper's Honey Steel's Gold","description":"Author: Encarnacao, John\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 9781501373343\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Bloomsbury\u003cbr\u003eYear first published: 07 Sep 2023\u003cbr\u003ePages: 136 Format: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEd Kuepper's history as a rock pioneer with The Saints and Laughing Clowns means that his albums of the early 1990s represent a remapping of the singer-songwriter concept. His classic \u003ci\u003eHoney Steel's Gold\u003c\/i\u003e shares a looseness with blues and folk recordings of the 1940s and 1950s, capturing performances that take detours, stretch and contract, wax and wane, such as the album's hit \"The Way I Made You Feel.\" \u003ci\u003eHoney Steel's Gold\u003c\/i\u003e is a landscape to be immersed in, to get lost in. It provides a space not where questions are answered but where we might stop and get a drink; an environment that provides solace, but not platitudes; where we can share a wry smile about the downsides of the human condition rather than attempt the illusion of blocking them out completely.\u003cbr\u003eThis study incorporates a consideration of Kuepper's iconoclastic career, at odds with the music industry and the grunge era into which the album was released. Beyond the apparent facts, though, there is interpretation, speculation, and attempts to meet \u003ci\u003eHoney Steel's Gold\u003c\/i\u003e on its own terms in some imaginary place.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46631851131038,"sku":"UBD-9781501373343","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781501373343.jpg?v=1774310217","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781501373343","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
