Jandek - 'Song of Morgan'

[FACT] And the Jandek catalog keeps getting deeper; this time around, we’ve got a 9-CD box set of hour-long solo piano pieces (numbered “Nocturne One” through “Nocturne Nine”) called The Song of Morgan. Available now through Volcanic Tongue, it’s described as “spare, austere and with that melancholy feel of remembrance that defines the most affecting Jandek sides. The pace varies slightly from disc to disc, while remaining essentially ruminative…Indeed, the box makes for the perfect accompaniment to scanning through all of the Jandek sleeves, further underlining the ‘definitive’ nature of the statement.”
