{"product_id":"sparkle-lane","title":"Sparkle Lane","description":"Audio Mixers: Don Piper; Edward Rogers.\u003cbr\u003eRecording information: Between The Trains Studio; Carousel Recording, Brooklyn, NY.\u003cbr\u003ePhotographers: Don Piper; Amanda Thorpe.\u003cbr\u003eAfter 2008's excellent sophomore immersion in power pop, Merseybeat, Revolver Beatles, Byrds, and baroque, the got-better-every-time-it-was-played You Haven't Been Where I've Been, New York's purveyor of '60s-spangled serenity turns his attention strictly to the baroque -- in a foppish 1967 London vein. Between evoking Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist's Artful Dodger or Blighty's annual Guy Fawkes Night, Rogers betrays a dancehall Kinks, Turtles, and later Monkees predilection. (Well, after the opening \"Symbols 'n Mascots\" feints at new wave.) The strings-and-vocal bits are like the Hollies' Butterfly after hearing \"Eleanor Rigby\"; i.e., a light touch in an array of crafted styles. And Rogers still writes effortless melodies like the Left Banke and Nick Lowe, sung in a vague Brit accent like Hugh Cornwell. If not as gripping as You Haven't, Sparkle is more tasty candy. ~ Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51392740917535,"sku":"884501212823","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/bdc129ff5c9d622329ae60d80c9e9b52.jpg?v=1777888066","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/sparkle-lane","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
