Beaumont Hannant and Lida Husik: Gregory Peck
1994 or so. Out of college, but basically unemployed. Living in Fairbanks again, working at the radio station. My friend Harper hipped me to this little EP, though back in Boston I was familiar with Beaumont Hannant via the electronica scene, and my once and future roommate, Benny Blanco (who later went onto fame for working with Spank Rock).
I just love this album, I love cross-genre collaborations, and this EP worked beautifully. plus though the lyrics are simple, they are evocative of a certain point in a relationship, a certain time of night, day of the week and time of the year, all in one, to me, and that is a pretty stellar thing to do with only two or three lines.
