Spooked

2004-11-09

As Michigan decends into the long, dark winter, Spooked offers late-night acoustic ambiance.

The disc features the unlikely teaming of the eccentric British song-writer with rural Appalachian stylists Gillian Welch and David Rawlings.

Welch and Rawlings are long-time fans of the leader of The Soft Boys, so they jumped at the chance to provide the instrumentation and backing vocals on Hitchcock’s new release.
