Product Details

Recorded the same year as its companion *Nothing Else Matters*, *I So Liked Spring* draws its title from a poem by Charlotte Mew, a quietly radical choice that fits Smith's sensibility perfectly. Her music has long rewarded the kind of patient, close listening that vinyl demands, and this first-ever LP pressing gives these home-recorded Baltimore sessions the tactile, physical form they always deserved.

A pioneer of the home recording movement, Linda Smith released several collections of delicate, bewitching solo music on cassette in the 1980s and 90s. The 2021 release of Till Another Time: 1988-1996, Captured Tracks' compilation of Smith's work, has helped bestow rightful critical acclaim to the ahead-of-her-time artist. Now, Captured Tracks dives deeper into Smith's catalog with the release of two full-length companion albums, Nothing Else Matters and I So Liked Spring, available for the first time on vinyl & streaming formats. Recorded at Smith's home in Baltimore in 1995, Nothing Else Matters chronicles the tension between the mundanity of daily life and the creative impulse.
