It’s been a while since the last Twin Peaks Archive release, but davidlynch.com returns today with a 9-track bundle of one of the best known Twin Peaks instrumentals.
FRESHLY SQUEEZED BUNDLE
In as so much as ‘Freshly Squeezed’ is an all-too-familiar composition from the Twin Peaks discography, hearing all of its variations can open a listener up to a more broad understanding of its various musical incarnations. Specifically, it is revealing of the instrumentalists involved… several of who are presented here on solo track versions, improvising on what were (more often than not) single recorded takes. The level of musicianship tapped for the show’s music is unquestionably high, and listening to these alternate versions back-to-back has the unique effect of lowering one’s aural barometer in order to create appreciation of notes and not just tracks.
9 tracks in total make up this ‘Freshly Squeezed’ themed bundle. Included are recordings of solo bass, flute, clarinet and bass clarinet, as well as alt versions of clarinet and flute with full ensemble. Additionally, a ‘Fast Cool Jazz Version 2,’ ‘mid-tempo’ arrangement and full unedited version of the original cut are included here for download.
