Recently, we reported that Thurston Moore and Tortoise had stopped by Beck’s Record club, joining the eclectic troubadour in recording an album in a day. Today, that album was announced: Yanni: Live at the Acropolis.
Perhaps the weirdest thing about this is our surprise. Separately, Beck Thurston Moore, and Tortoise have enough of a cool factor to light a small city (or, for argument’s sake, the Acropolis). So why wouldn’t they combine their Wonder Twins-like power to elevate Yanni to the level of hipster kitsch? Umm…duh.
Here’s the first video of the series, “Santorini.” Brace yourselves, they’ll be here all summer.
