Notes
In his new liner notes for this re-issue, Rolling Stone's David Fricke calls Aztec Camera's 1983 album HIGH LAND, HARD RAIN "ten songs of anxious yearning, romantic urgency, big hurt and hard-won learning, distilled into compact dramas of buckskin-folk jangle and skewed-pop elegance." Regarded as one of the greatest debut albums in the history of rock 'n' roll, the fact that Aztec Camera's HIGH LAND, HARD RAIN was written and conceived by Scottish mastermind Roddy Frame when he was just nineteen years old, defies all logic and sense of fair play. With the original album re-mastered from the analog tapes and pressed on 180 gm virgin vinyl with accompanying digital download card for both the original album and the rarities disc included in the CD package, this deluxe 30th anniversary edition of Aztec Camera's HIGH LAND, HARD RAIN will surely not disappoint.
