DESCRIPTION
==================
With his label counting the accomplished Invisible Soundtracks series amongst its back catalog, Tony Morley's Leaf imprint is more qualified than most to mine the increasingly diverse vein of film scores without visuals. The original Slim Westerns, released in 1994 on the Soleilmoon label, followed imaginary outlaw Gerry Melody through the badlands of the wild frontier, with this 52-minute sequel catching up on the accidental hero as he continues to drift through Andrew Hulmes' sonic landscape. From the tumbleweeds which plague the introductory "Cropduster" through the closing campfire warmth of "Night," the music tips its hat to everyone from Barry Adamson to Morricone, with Hulmes keeping Mark Sedgwick and Tom Fazzini's delicate guitar work in check through subtle twists of the desk, maintaining a solicitous edge that never feels too far from the trigger of its Winchester. - Kingsley Marshall

------------------------------------------------------
Slim Westerns Vol II is the long awaited companion to the first Slim Westerns album, originally released in 1994 on the US Soleilmoon label. A highly evocative soundtrack to an imaginary Western, its musical touchstones include Morricone, Badalamenti, Adamson, Cooder, Calexico and The KLF's Chill Out. It'll get under your skin, and you won't want it to leave.
A Small Good Thing's slow and steady history is now bookended by these maps and explorations of the Wild West, shaped by the gauzy iconography of half-remembered Saturday afternoon TV movies and reinforced by the lonely literary landscapes of Raymond Carver, Richard Brautigan, Cormac McCarthy and Flannery O'Connor. A world of wandering lost souls, damaged cowboys, bad preachers - thems what don't fit in. Disengaged by sheer distance from the heat of the desert, ASGT's music glides into the cool slipstream of ambient space, returning frontier America to its source in ghostly form.
Slim Westerns began as a musical score to the mythical adventures of an outlaw character by the name of Gerry Melody. The 12-page fake pulp western novel accompanying the CD continues this thematic thread of Gerry's unraveling tale.
A double CD limited edition is also available, including the long lost first volume of Slim Westerns.
