Joseph Arthur – Junkyard Hearts [Repost@320] (2012)

Two years after his sophomore effort Come To Where I m From, and proving that he s ever his own man, Joseph Arthur independently produced a series of four EPs under the collective name of Junkyard Hearts (I-IV) – which were never
commercially offered except at his 2002 tour appearances.Now, a decade later, these rare recordings are being reissued as a two-CD set as part of Real World Records newly-launched Gold series. These half-forgotten gems demand your attention, with 19 compelling tracks that showcase a man at the peak of his substantial artistic powers. Always a gifted painter as well as a musician, Joseph also designed the artwork of this very covetable package.Co-produced with Ben Findlay, and mixed by Tchad Blake, this release showcases a unique and prolific talent at a critical point in his career.
