Escovedo, Alejandro: A man Under The Influence (2xVinyl)

Repressed and reissued. Originally released in 2001, 'A Man Under the Influence' cemented Alejandro's place as one of the premier performers and songwriters to call Texas home. Alejandro remains the rare artist who can crawl inside themes of love and loss and redemption and explore them both intimately and personally. With unflinching conviction, Alejandro squares his shoulders and through his music faces up to all that life has to offer, good and bad. Includes the full length Man Under The Influence (never before available on vinyl), and bonus tracks from his EP Bourbonitis Blues and Bloodshot compilation tracks. Gatefold, double LP, complete with digital download card. ""Musically, Escovedo is his own genre, a folk-blues classicist with a gritty plaintive voice and an equal fondness for dirty boogie and spectral balladry. With this album, Escovedo's own pilgrimage out of the shadows continues with power and elegance."" - Rolling Stone
