{"product_id":"long-ryders-state-of-our-union-music-cd-5013929106703","title":"Long Ryders - State Of Our Union - Music CD","description":"Digitally remastered and expanded three CD edition. The Long Ryders were formed in 1982 by young American musicians influenced by Gram Parsons, C\u0026amp;W, The Byrds, and the punk scene found in their hometown of Los Angeles. The Long Ryders were an anecdote to formula stadium rock and wimpy synth-pop. The band featured Sid Griffin on guitar, autoharp, and harmonica, Stephen McCarthy on guitar, steel guitar, mandolin, and banjo, Tom Stevens, bass, and Greg Sowders, playing drums and percussion. With a sound reminiscent of the Buffalo Springfield and The Flying Burrito Brothers, but with a harder edge, they anticipated the alternative country music of the 1990s by a decade. This version overseen by Tom Stevens contains the remastered album, a set of demos from the band's archive, and a legendary show from London's Mean Fiddler. Remastered by Andy Pearce the recordings, in Sid's opinion, have never sounded so good. A new booklet designed by Phil Smee contains many rare photos and memorabilia from the band's own collections as well as liner notes by bassist Tom Stevens.","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49211479916786,"sku":"CHYR9106703.2","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/3831966.jpg?v=1778894084","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/long-ryders-state-of-our-union-music-cd-5013929106703","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
