Tommy Guerrero
's revered
Return Of The Bastard
gets its first ever vinyl reissue. Endearingly simple but beautifully beguiling, it's lo-fi dusty break business with the most elegant guitars this side of
Vini Reilly
and
Gabor Szabo
. Tommy's breezy drum-machine guitar-soul should be prescribed to soothe an aching world. By rights, he should also be a Balearic god. Here's 14 tracks of drop-dead laconic beauty, all of them combining to create this unheralded masterpiece. Working with Tommy directly, the LP has been fully remastered and sounds as dazzlingly, heartbreakingly beautiful as it did back in 2007. As ever, there's heavenly Latin guitar stylings that make you swoon and the melancholic vibe is accentuated by the addition of some melodic wordless vocals from Tommy. The head-nod funk of "Calling For Ya!" features
Curumin
delivering the clever title as a hypnotic vocal refrain peppered throughout, all hung around some buried spoken word vocals and gorgeous cello work from
Lenny Gonzalez
. "Bloodinthemud" is a low-down gritty funk workout whilst "Zapata's Boots" is a total low-key groover, all Latin percussion and
Morricone
muscle aided by a whistled Spaghetti Western melody. The upbeat and bright "40 Summers," featuring congas from
Alfredo Ortiz
, is as clean and poppy as Tommy gets and it really is a look he wears incredibly well. Meticulously remastered and cut by both
Simon Francis
and
Cicely Balston
respectively, it has been pressed to the highest possible quality at Record Industry in Holland. The original and iconic sleeve, designed by
Natas Kaupas
, has been restored here at Be With HQ as the finishing touch to this long overdue re-issue. Part of Be With's Tommy Guerrero reissue campaign. 140g-vinyl.
