Sonically it spreads its net wider -– country, disco and woozy psychedelics join the Carole King and James Taylor nods on Grand Plan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA death, a pandemic and a break-up could have made for a sombre sounding album, but Dan took a different route, finding beauty where he could and poking fun at his own foolishness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth albums were recorded largely live at the legendary Spacebomb Studios in Richmond, Virginia with Matthew E. White (Natalie Prass, Flo Morrissey, Slow Club) and his four-piece house band. This time, Dan co-produced, tinkering with sounds late into the night to add his own stamp to the record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst single received coverage from DIY, Clash, Mystic Sons, Various Small Flames, #BrandNew, Original Rock, Thank Folk For That, Music on the Rox and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP Tracks: Slip Away \/ Talk To You \/ Friend Of Mine \/ Red and the Green \/ Sunshine \/ Second Guess \/ Fools \/ Piece of the Action \/ Stephen \/ How Close We Came \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD Tracks: Slip Away \/ Talk To You \/ Friend Of Mine \/ Red and the Green \/ Sunshine \/ Second Guess \/ Fools \/ Piece of the Action \/ Stephen \/ How Close We Came\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"Dan Croll - Slip Away\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vfcqItoKfCc\" height=\"360\" width=\"640\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COMMUNION RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42273231765660,"sku":"COMM520","price":18.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/image001_693b70ec-b6ae-4e4b-bd69-3e98fe6ce0ac.jpg?v=1673378636","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/dan-croll-fools-lp","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
