Scott Seskind "Chance" LP (Black vinyl)

From our friends at Ebalunga Music in Austria:

You might recognize the name Scott Seskind from his 1985 self-titled LP which appeared on one of those Acid Archives lists. Or you might recognize him from his song “I Remember” which appeared on the new classic “Sky Girl” comp Effficient Space blessed us with a few years ago. Austrian label Ebalunga Music reissued his first LP in 2023 and now has given the world a vinyl pressing of Scott’s second and final album “Chance” which only ever saw a cassette release back in 1991.

“Chance was recorded on the same 4-track Portastudio cassette machine Scott used for his debut. These are songs born between duties and silence, family life. There are no frills here: just voice, guitar, subtle strokes of cello, female backing vocals, mandolin, and percussion. Total intimacy. Total warmth.

Songs of hope, grief, and memory:

The lyrics explore friendship, loss, longing, and love with no pretension and no mask. Chance feels like a personal conversation, not a performance. And among its tracklist is perhaps Scott’s most widely known song: “I Remember”, which in recent years has reached a new generation of listeners after being featured on the acclaimed compilation “Skygirl”(Efficient Space) a release that introduced countless people to its fragile beauty.

Bonus track and closing chapter:

This edition also includes, for the first time, the bonus track “Last Song” a home recording made “many years ago” in the Colorado foothills.
A bright and serene farewell, it brings the album to a gentle, natural close like the final page of an abandoned diary.”
