A private LP is an album composed, performed, recorded and edited usually in a very-DIY style by the artist or by an amateur label. A private press record is, above all, an act of the artistic urge. It’s an act that takes place outside of the industry out of need, out of a lack of knowledge, out of love, out of a drive, out of ambition... You can choose from the many reasons. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDepending on their genre, origins, time, and quality, some of these efforts have become valuable pieces for the music collector. Having been created behind  the canonical history of music written by the  industry, every now and then an archaeologist will bring to the surface an artefact they have found in some basement or flea market, or that was kept covered  in dust in the shell of some old recording studio soon to be torn down. All  these records have their own story, some are still especially relevant, and others are small footnotes in the encyclopedia of music that made their way into the margins of the mainstream world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are the most limited editions (mostly locally made ones) of largely unsociable and mostly unobtainable records--and when found, they are often exorbitantly priced. Many of these marginalized and obscure artists have stayed alive only through the wonderful work of tireless song rescuers, music  lovers, vocational archivists, collectors, and record labels with an idealistic drive. These romantics have been rescuing and indexing a form of music that very few have showed interest in  until recent years. This record is a tribute to all of those who managed to make these songs not be lost to time. Above all, this release is a tribute to all those artists who recorded their songs on their own, mostly because they couldn’t keep the music inside themselves. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaitreya Kali “One Last Farewell” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGary Higgins “Thicker Than A Smokey” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlicia May “Summer Days” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDan Gillmor \u0026amp; Doug McClaran “Ghost Song” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBobb Trimble “One Mile From Heaven” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBob Patterson “Friends Of Mine” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJim Sullivan “Jerome” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChuck \u0026amp; Mary Perrin “Corrine” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDan Modlin \u0026amp; Dave Scott “Loser, Lover” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBilly Hallquist “Persephone” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRichard Goldman “Sweethearts” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOlav Rixen \u0026amp; Ulrich Fausten “Pilgrimade” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNaomi Lewis “More Beautiful” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJerry and Nancy Stevens “A Little Resolution” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMerrell Fankhauser “On Our Way To Hana”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Michael Angelo “Field Of Lonely Eyes” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarm Mascarenhas “In The Sun” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoe \u0026amp; Bing “Daybreak” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhilip John Lewin “Diamond Love” \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael Yonkers \"And Give It To You\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mapache Records","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50481826496843,"sku":"2027391","price":42.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50481826070859,"sku":"2027390","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/cye-pnrQ_f61ce1e5_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727545291","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/one-mile-from-heaven","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
