Daniel Johnston – Yip Jump Music CS
Out of stock
$10.00
His fifth full-length album, released originally in 1983, Yip/Jump Music remains one of Daniel Johnston’s most beloved albums. Much is made of Kurt Cobain’s love for the record, and whenever you come across any promotional text, there’s always some mention made of the Nirvana songwriter having named Yip/Jump music as his thirty-fifth favourite album of all time (similarly, you can’t mention Hi, How Are You without acknowledgment of Cobain’s T-shirt at the 1992 MTV Awards). The quality of Johnston’s songwriting manages to cut through any such marketing hyperbole, just as it does the technical restrictions that meant the album was committed roughly to tape using unconventional instrumentation like a chord organ and the occasional ukulele. None of that matters because Johnston’s lyrics and melodies are on top form, and the likes of ‘Speeding Motorcycle’, ‘Casper The Friendly Ghost’ and the wonderful, genuinely moving closing track ‘I Remember Painfully’ remain highlights of Johnston’s discography.
