Hailed as pioneers of the alt-country/Americana sound, the Jayhawks emerged from Minneapolis' mid-'80s scene with a soaring combination of folksy harmonies and power-pop melodies. The band's status as a major influence, as well as that of being one of the best bands of its generation, are richly deserved.

Reviews:

Hollywood Town Hall was one of the more unlikely major label releases of 1992. It is a good road-trip album, moving from pre-dawn departure ('Waiting for the Sun') to a hard-won destination ('Martin's Song', with its chorus, 'I've been working all night, I go long into day'). Louris' guitar cuts elegant swathes through these songs, and the new remaster brings out the rich tones in the instruments themselves, especially Benmont Tench's organ on 'Crowded in the Wings'.

This brilliant album is now available on 180 gram audiophile vinyl pressing, remastered From The Original Master Tapes
