The timing was perfect. On \u003ci\u003eOther People’s Songs Volume One\u003c\/i\u003e one can see the scaffolding of what would become a creative turning point for the pair - later seen with the release of Damien Jurado’s \u003ci\u003eMaraqopa\u003c\/i\u003e, the first record in his Maraqopa trilogy - less than two years later. The opening drum hits of \u003ci\u003eBe Not So Fearful\u003c\/i\u003e, the falsetto vocals of \u003ci\u003eSweetness\u003c\/i\u003e and the Spaghetti-Western swing of \u003ci\u003eRadioactivity\u003c\/i\u003e are, by now, hallmarks of the Jurado \/ Swift sound but \u003ci\u003eOther People’s Songs Volume One\u003c\/i\u003e is a transitional fossil, a marking of the pair’s collaborative evolution. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the first time \u003ci\u003eOther People’s Songs Volume One\u003c\/i\u003e is available on CD and LP\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50495145247051,"sku":"1002540","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50495146197323,"sku":"1002539","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/636101c0-db31-44cb-8df7-bc874c03fa9b_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727709270"},{"product_id":"the-horizon-just-laughed","title":"The Horizon Just Laughed","description":"\u003cp\u003eDamien Jurado releases a new album, \u003ci\u003eThe Horizon Just Laughed\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Horizon Just Laughed\u003c\/i\u003e like previous albums, started with a dream – though that’s where things change, as they often do.

Damien Jurado is the sort of songwriter who straddles rock's past and future, and with each record contributes a new chapter to an ever-fruitful body of work. Before we move onto the next chapter, we look back at his first album with Secretly Canadian. An instant classic when released in 2003, 'Where Shall You Take Me?' was his fifth full-length, and is a beautiful collection of ten Raymond Carver-esque vignettes terror and bliss in Middle America. Arriving two decades after Springsteen's Nebraska, Jurado put the darker, more complicated side of the heartland back on the map with his tales of young love (some requited; some not), innocent fun and bloodshed. Mostly acoustic with very sparse band arrangements - with the notable exception being the old live favourite 'Texas to Ohio,' which sounds like a Scarecrow-era Mellencamp hit - Jurado displayed the songwriting talent that turns back the hands of time to a place in which his tunes sound like they've been floating around, passed down from generation to generation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50505212952907,"sku":"1134291","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/43628aff-f708-4487-bab8-926f2a45d9f2_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727813650"},{"product_id":"birds-tricked-into-the-trees-from-devils-to-davis","title":"Birds Tricked Into The Trees \/ From Devils To Davis","description":"\u003cp\u003eFeaturing new single \u003ci\u003eBirds Tricked Into The Trees\u003c\/i\u003e, along with brand new song \u003ci\u003eFrom Devils To Davis\u003c\/i\u003e on the b-side, exclusive to this RSD release.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Loose Music","offers":[{"title":"Blue | 7\"","offer_id":50507142299979,"sku":"1090384","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/68efb36d-1525-46bc-8d19-63ee2670e418_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727839228"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/collections\/test_b952291d_thumbnail_4096_f4b40d50-2a14-46c4-9132-9ce6a2b2d4e1.jpg?v=1726558196","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/damien-jurado.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
