The Zimmermen: Rivers Of Corn
A TRAVEL ADVISORY FROM 1986 (still relevant?) AND MUCH MORE…
Rivers Of Corn – remastered and with bonus tracks – is being released on CD for the first time, and on the usual digital platforms for download and streaming. Recorded over a turbulent ten-month period (during which two members left to join Paul Kelly in Sydney) and originally released in 1986, Rivers Of Corn featured two timeless singles, “Don’t Go To Sydney” and “Ordinary Man”, together with nine further tracks that featured their inimitable jangle. The LP attracted considerable interest from independent music lovers in the US, Spain and Sweden. With three bonus tracks, this release makes for a joyful 40thanniversary celebration.
“It was an instant classic, an exceptional slice of harmony-drenched guitar pop. It became one of the most successful independent singles for 1986.” – Ian McFarlane, on “Don’t Go To Sydney”
