Code Red Rides Again
Hello all,
I have some very exciting news, my album Code Red Cloud Nine has just been re-released on vinyl by the folks at Yield Brother Records. Yield Brother, a vinyl-only record label, have turned their full attention to every detail and gone all-out with this remastered 180 gram disc and beautiful packaging. Additionally, I’ve written an essay about the inspiration and making of Code Red that’s included with the album along with the original liner notes by Duane Eddy. This collection of tunes has always been near and dear to me, I’m proud of the compositions and always felt it was music made to be heard on vinyl with all its clarity, depth and dimension. Listening to the test pressing a couple months ago was a real thrill, it sounded so good. Code Red Cloud Nine is also being offered as a premium package with an 8 X 10 colour photo signed personally to you and a few other goodies. This limited pressing of 500 is available now exclusively through Yield Brother Records. So sharpen your needles and visit the Yield Brother Records website: yieldbrotherrecords.com to find out more and order one while they last.
Vintage Guitar Magazine did a Q&A with me about this vinyl edition of Code Red that appeared in the September 2020 issue. The article covers further details regarding the making of the record as well as a few other things. If interested you can order a copy directly from them at, https://store.vintageguitar.com/back-issues.html
Finally, here’s a little video I made to announce the vinyl re-release of Code Red. It’s a tune called Squisito, the song that opens side one of the record.
As you can tell I’m very pleased and excited to partner up with Yield Brother Records and to have this music heard the way I’d always imagined it should sound, through a needle stuck into a proper hunk of vinyl.
Stay well and as the vaccines roll out, here’s to a brighter 2021.
Cheers,
Richard
