Sonic Youth founder Thurston Moore offers a CD boxset album SPIRIT COUNSEL with three compact discs and book. The box will be available for purchase on International Peace Day, which is September 21, 2019. SPIRIT COUNSEL is a collection of three extended compositions recorded between 2018-19. This collection represents a period of reflection on spiritual matters, collective musical friendships, and a time and space universally, without words or languages to distract from meditation. CD 1: 'Alice Moki Jayne' is a new composition from noise guitar explorations honouring Alice Coltrane, Moki Cherry, and Jayne Cortez. These female partners of jazz musicians brought spirituality into the lives and music that has most inspired Thurston Moore. 12-string electric guitar army: Thurston Moore, James Sedwards, Jen Chochinov // Baritone bass truth and soul: Deb Googe // Magick drums: Jem Doulton // Electronic Wobbly love: Jon Leidecker // Engineer: Christophe Albertijn // Recorded in Brussels, Belgium in 2019 CD 2: '8 Spring Street' is a personal hommage to Glenn Branca, the title an address is in New York City, the apartment where Thurston first visited his mentor to rehearse.
