FIRST PEEPS FROM
CHICKEN BUCKET WEARING GENIUS
Like some rare, decent-sounding Beatles tracks from 1959 or never-before-heard Eddie Van Halen from 1975, Buckethead's From the Coop arrives June 10 on MVD Audio with a CD full of primordial Bucket-ism . The 19 tracks on From the Coop predate all other Buckethead releases by three years. They are, in fact, the first multi-track recordings he ever made. Buckethead created them in 1988 for a pal who worked as an editor for a guitar magazine, and already it's all there - the unparalleled technique, the achingly beautiful solos, incredible shredding, wry twists and turns, and best of all, a musical imagination light years beyond his contemporaries. Buckethead drew the CD's cover art (a young version of himself in a ghostly chicken coop), and the booklet includes reproductions of Buckethead's handwriting from the original tapes, as well as the very first Buckethead bio. The CD was produced by Jas Obrecht, who made Buckethead's Acoustic Shards CD and the Young Buckethead DVD, and the tracks have been digitally restored by Ken Hood.
