Getaway is a fantastic listen, filled with sparkling guitar, effortlessly catchy tunes and a forward-driving momentum that never fails to lift spirits. That’s reason enough to revisit the album — but Merge’s recent reissue includes a bonus disc that is worth the price of admission all on its own. The bonus disc packages together two limited edition Clean live collections, Slush Fund and Syd’s Pink Wiring System. This is utterly magical music, as the Brothers Kilgour (David and Hamish) and Robert Scott (also of The Bats) soar to impossibly lofty heights, whether finding new contours in a unique piano-led version of “Point That Thing Somewhere Else,” or blazing through an unbelievable eight-minute “Quickstep.” David in particular is on fire throughout, using his cohorts’ sturdy backing as a launchpad for endlessly inventive and powerful six-string fireworks. Quite simply, the dude is one of the finest guitarists, and his abilities are on full display here. God save The Clean!
Thanks a lot for this post…
