This is BOC’s first concept album; being exposed to the horrors of the world on TV but not being able to understand them yet (side A) while maintaining childhood innocence but internalizing that worldview into creative growth (side B). “Tomorrow’s Harvest” comes full circle.
I`ve been a BoC listener for like 20 years and this album had my attention back there. But somehow this album has evolved in my mind today and its like the best of BoC.
@@connor48880 True, and the fact that it was released in '96 and the songs were from the '86 to '96 period. So maybe they brought some friends and family in their studios from time to time showing off what they were cooking and now they got it all bundled up for them. Or I must be overthinking again.
Yeah the old tunes/tapes vibe is definitely to create an air of mystery and lore. Almost 100% certain these were new tunes at the time, made to sound old
Having an official release of Old Tunes 1+2 and Random35 would be awesome, but unlikely, since clearing up the red tape for all the samples used would be a nightmare :\
One of the greatest and most underrated artists of all time. I live about 10 minutes from the Pentland Hills just outside of Edinburgh. I’ve driven for hours listening to tapes like this and wondering if or when I may have come close to Hexagon Sun
My dad always told me Jesus Christ Superstar was a godlike album but I never listened to it, Heysanna Hosanna from this album got me hooked, i'll definitely have to listen to it when I am prepared.
This album had a weird effect on me. I put slices of lemon peel under the glare of a lamp post, then removed them and filmed the empty pavement afterwards, for no apparent reason.
@@JasonBoon02same with a few other tracks on this album, I mean I've always found it weird that almost no one slowed samples to give them a surreal atmosphere, it seems so obvious now, but BoC were ahead of the curve
