Glenn Jones - The Wanting

· ‘The Wanting’ is Glenn’s first album for Thrill Jockey
(and fourth album overall) and follows the instantly
sold out ‘Even To Win Is To Fail’ LP (a split with The
Black Twig Pickers released for Record Store Day
2011).

· Glenn Jones is a leading talent in the so-called
modern “American Primitive” school of acoustic steel
string guitarists, a school that includes the late great
John Fahey, Robbie Basho and Jack Rose – all of
whom were friends and collaborators of Glenn’s.

· ‘The Wanting’ is a collection of original compositions
for solo acoustic steel string guitar, six-string, 10-
string and bottleneck, and 5-string open-back banjo

· CD version comes in a 4 panel mini-LP style gatefold
package and includes a 4 page booklet with notes on
each song.

· 2xLP version comes in a gatefold jacket and includes a
free download coupon.

· First vinyl pressing is limited to only 1,000 copies.

· Glenn will continue to perform live in support of the
album - his solo performances always captivating
those lucky enough to witness.

· The album’s 17+ minute closing track features Glenn
joined by master percussionist Chris Corsano.
