You’ve Changed records is very pleased to announce the first ever vinyl pressing of Daniel Romano’s debut solo album Workin’ For The Music Man.
Originally released on CD in 2010, Workin’ For The Music Man was a striking and unexpected move away from the Punk and Rock music Daniel had played with his much-loved band Attack in Black. Here he drew on the music he’d heard and loved since childhood, the folk-tinged ballads and country music of Hank Williams and George Jones that his parents had played around the kitchen table, to create a warm and big-hearted and personal sound. Matching method to content, Daniel recorded himself in his own 2” 16 track studio using only his own instrumentation and select contributions from family and friends, and sang with humour of the corrupting influence of the music business. A great artist won’t be tied down by expectations, management, or bad contracts. He’ll always sing himself loose.
Workin’ For The Music Man is the missing step between the cult favourite folk collaboration Daniel, Fred, and Julie (YC-003) and the already classic Sleep Beneath the Willow (YC-010) and we’re happy to finally satisfy the demand for a high-quality vinyl pressing.
