Recorded by Jai Lil Diamond and Scott Hirsch over a period of three years in various studios, lofts, and farmhouses in California, New York, and North Carolina, Country Hai East Cotton is Hiss Golden Messenger’s debut collection of wayward sky songs and burnt houseboat blues in hi-fi. Doc Snock says: Many megahits here.

Originally released in two hand-stamped editions of 65 copies, Hiss Golden Messenger’s Big Sur 4.22.07 was recorded live at The Fernwood Lodge by Matt Cunitz. On this occasion, HGM personnel included Jai Lil Diamond, Scott Hirsch, Tim Bluhm, John Hofer, Matt Cunitz, and Patrick Main. Another stoney evening before the inevitable bloody mary morning.

This recording is currently SOULED OUT.
