“The Pictures” is the most sprawling, and the most personal, album Dave Harrington has ever made. It’s a love letter to the cinema. It’s a showcase for his eclectic taste. It’s a quiet nod to his father. It’s a love song to his family. It’s a heady journey through abstraction and back.
Harrington plays every instrument on the album, from his usual guitar (sometimes warped and twisted, and sometimes gently strummed or plucked in earnest and on-the-sleeve homage to the heroes—maybe Bill Frisell or Jerry Garcia here and there) in addition to a sprawling collection of percussion, drums, upright bass, keyboards, and his fretless Turkish banjo. The results are pushed through Harrington’s 21st Century Schizoid Teo Macero post production approach, leading to a collection of music that is equal parts frenetic beat-dub mixtape and open hearted “plays for the lovers” ballads.
Ghosts of film and television past whisper through these tapestries offering notes to loved ones, haiku-hymns for lost ones, and meditations on what it all might mean if we put it together. But, for some moments in life there are no words—so we have the pictures.
