Spiritualized – Music For William Eggleston's Stranded In Canton

Vinyl LP pressing. Stranded in Canton is a black-and-white film portrait of Memphis in 1974, shot in bars and on street corners, showing Eggleston's friends carousing, playing music and firing pistols into the night sky. It is raw, greasy, Quaalude-y and hot. Jagged and intimate, the film is a handheld window into a different world; Hogarth on Beale Street" as writer Richard Williams describes it in the album's liner notes. Restored and re-edited by Eggleston in collaboration with the author Robert Gordon, the 77-minute film was screened in 2015 as part of Doug Aitken's Station to Station, a 30-day arts festival in London and Aitken recruited J Spaceman to provide a live score."
