Boomslang - Johnny Marr - Vinyl LP Record (Arrives in 50 days)

Released in 2003, Boomslang was Johnny Marr’s first solo studio album. After his departure from The Smith in 1987, Marr spent a number of years with the likes of The Pretenders before recruiting Zak Starkey (drums), Alonza Bevan (Bass) and more to form The Healers in 2000. Recorded at Clear Studios in Manchester, with James Spencer (New Order, The Charlatans), Boomslang comprised of eleven tracks that combined his signature guitar playing with heavy psychedelic rhythms. “We holed ourselves up in our own other world and experimented with different ways to write, record and think", says Marr. “Twenty years on I’m pleased we created the music and this new release of Boomslang has given me the opportunity to revisit it and present some songs that we weren’t able to include the first time around.” Never before on Vinyl and not currently available on DSPs, Boomslang will be available for the first time on Double Colour vinyl, 2CD and Digital deluxe. The album has been fully remastered at Abbey Road and includes 7 rarities, chosen by Johnny as well as brand new art direction by his long-time collaborator Mat Bancroft.
