About this deal

Only on Vinyl’ is dedicated to lovers of vinyl everywhere and was recorded ‘old skool’ by Steve and long time drummer Dan Magnusson. Fans are sure to love the sequel to a firm fan favourite in the brand new ‘Down On The Farm 2’, along with a down and dirty new recording of Hobo Low (which was originally released on ‘Dog House Music’ in 2006).

After Wold became ill on a boat trip between Norway and Denmark, he adopted the name "Seasick Steve" as a parallel to that of blues musician Homesick James, and started to form a band, Seasick Steve and the Level Devils. A music video was also released, with Seasick Steve dancing behind his farm with the hubcap guitar in his hand, in similar fashion to The Black Keys' song, " Lonely Boy". Only on Vinyl finds Seasick Steve on top form pulling riffs, grooves and melodies out of thin air to deliver new classic Seasick Steve tracks such as ‘Put That In Your Pipe’.At that time, it was claimed in press coverage that he was 66 years old, though he was later demonstrated to be ten years younger. Only on Vinyl’ finds Seasick Steve on top form pulling riffs, grooves and melodies out of thin air to deliver new classic Seasick Steve tracks such as ‘Put That In Your Pipe’. Leach appeared on two Crystal Grass albums released by Philips Records in France, Dance Up a Storm and Ocean Potion, the latter credited to Steve Leach with the Crystal Grass Orchestra. A routinely great artist, much of Sufjan's universal appeal comes from his skills as a gifted narrator, pairing personal musings on love and devotion with commentary on American culture, whilst welding folk and electronica, the ambient and existential. He met Elisabeth Wold in a blues bar in Oslo, Norway, and adopted her surname after she became his second wife.

I Started Out with Nothin and I Still Got Most of It Left, Steve's third studio album, was released in September 2008. By his own account, he would travel long distances by hopping freight trains, looking for work as a farm laborer or in other seasonal jobs. His full length debut on Daptone Records is equal parts raw feeling and elegance and exudes confidence and charm. Over its 40 years in business, PIAS has grown to be one of the largest independently-owned music groups in the world, carving out its own in-house recorded music division PIAS [Recordings].Steve Wold was born in Oakland, California, as Steven Gene Leach, though his biographer suggests that he may have been adopted as a baby. In an interview with an Australian magazine, Wold attributed much of his unlikely success to his cheap and weather-beaten guitar, "The Trance Wonder" and reveals the guitar's mojo might come from supernatural sources. He was well received in the UK, winning the 2007 MOJO Award for Best Breakthrough Act and going on to appear at major UK festivals such as Reading, Leeds and Glastonbury.

When we were down there last time he says to me, 'I didn't tell you when you bought it off me, but that guitar used to be haunted'. Wold made his first UK television appearance on Jools Holland's annual Hootenanny BBC TV show on New Year's Eve 2006. Barry Divola, "Bob Dylan, Seasick Steve and rock's great hits and myths", The Age, 23 November 2016.Wold claimed to have lived rough and on the road in Tennessee, Mississippi and elsewhere, until at least the late 1960s.

When he was ill on a ferry from Norway to Copenhagen, later in his life, a friend began playfully using the name and, despite Wold not rising to it for a while, it stuck. He has since released a number of commercially successful albums, including I Started Out with Nothin and I Still Got Most of It Left, Man from Another Time, and Sonic Soul Surfer.The album is almost entirely performed by Steve, apart from snare drum on "Yellow Dog" and crash cymbal on "Fallen Off a Rock", performed by H. For a time in the early 1980s, he lived in London, and then with Elisabeth in Skelmersdale, England, which biographer Wright notes is the location of a major Transcendental Meditation movement center.
