Durutti Column – Vini Reilly (CD)

Vini Reilly has long occupied a singular space in the post-punk and ambient guitar world, his fragile, fingerpicked textures and classical influences setting the Durutti Column apart from nearly everything else to emerge from Manchester's Factory Records scene. The 1989 self-titled album arrived as one of his most intimate statements, featuring vocal contributions from Morrissey at a moment when both artists were at fascinating crossroads in their careers.
