Good Morning - Basketball Breakups (Limited White Coloured Vinyl Reissue)
Recorded over 4 days in Matsumoto, Japan, at the end of a tour, Basketball Breakups was essentially made on holiday, in the middle of a humid summer, in a studio next to a 7-11. Guitars, bass, drums, keys and piano form understated rock arrangements, ever effortless in Good Morning’s light, laconic way. The band’s founding members Liam Parsons and Stefan Blair, along with band mates James McLeod and John Considine, sound truly at ease on these songs, which are almost all made up of early takes. Named after the blissful “breakup dinner” at the end of a junior sports season, when the team are treated to whatever they like from the menu at the local Italian restaurant, that spirit of communal joy and low-key over-indulgence is alive on this album. While The Option was tightly rehearsed and made with the vision of true Rock Record in mind, Basketball Breakups was recorded while it was arranged, on digital and tape, never laboured over.
