{"product_id":"counting-crows-recovering-the-satellites-2lp","title":"Counting Crows - Recovering the Satellites [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFame arrived fast for Counting Crows, and Recovering the Satellites, their 1996 second album, is Adam Duritz's restless answer to it, spread here across two LPs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter the runaway success of August and Everything After, the band could have played it safe. Instead they made a bigger, louder and more conflicted record about what happens when your private life becomes public property. Producer Gil Norton, known for his work with Pixies, pushed the guitars forward and gave the songs a rawer edge, while Duritz wrote some of his most searching lyrics about loneliness, distance and the strange weight of being watched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAngels of the Silences kicks the door in with jangling urgency, the band sounding more like a rock group than ever before. Daylight Fading carries a wide-open, road-trip ache, and Goodnight Elisabeth unfolds slowly, letting the arrangement swell around Duritz's weary vocal. Then there is A Long December, the album's quiet centrepiece, a piano-led reflection on change and hope that became one of the band's signature songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn two records, the album has room to breathe, and its mix of bruised introspection and big-hearted melody still hits as hard as it did on arrival. For many fans, this is the Counting Crows record they keep coming back to, usually late at night and usually with the volume creeping up.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57165863780657,"sku":"602475782384","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Counting_Crows-Recovering_the_Satellites_2LP.jpg?v=1793186061","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/counting-crows-recovering-the-satellites-2lp","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
