Up for auction is my super rare copy of the limited edition vinyl LP+CD release of "Going Places" by Yellow Swans. This one is hard to find. It's for discerning fans of experimental music. Actually, its for anyone with working ears and an open mind. And open heart. It will change your life. I think. I mean, it certainly made an impression on me. Now it's your turn.
The sleeve and the vinyl/CD are all in EXCELLENT condition. There is no damage to report. If you have questions, reach out. 
Recorded spring 2008 at Below Rotture, Portland, Oregon, Cascadia. Tracks A1 & B1 appear in longer form on an LP released by En/Off in 2009. Initial copies came with a free bonus cd, "Being There". CD notes same recording location information.
"The closest analogue to the album's effect might be cinema, where pictures and sound create an experience more like dreaming than just watching and listening. Going Places is music that plays like a movie. The duo relies more on field recordings and tape loops than before, and it gives a picturesque quality to their abstract sounds. Every moment is tactile and visual, like paint strokes that are just color on their own but together create a meaningful image. The resulting pictures are also wide and expansive, like a slow Stanley Kubrick pan or a meditative Terrence Malick nature shot. Think of it as noise in Imax." -Pitchfork

**I will ship the item wrapped in bubble wrap in a cardboard LP mailer. Unless you specifically contact me to request otherwise, I will ship with the disc outside of the main jacket to protect the seams from damage in transit. I do not currently have access to a turntable, so I must visually grade my records. If you have any questions or would like to see more photos, reach out. I am not a professional seller, just a longtime collector who has decided to sell them all off.**
