{"product_id":"chris-chandler-prime-cuts-cd","title":"Chris Chandler - Prime Cuts (CD) PREORDER","description":"\u003ch1\u003e     Folken word great Chris Chandler offers his entire Prime Records catalogue available in specially priced 3cd set for the first time. \u003c\/h1\u003e \u003cp\u003eFolk and spoken-word firebrand Chris Chandler brings together his complete Prime Records era for the first time with \u003ci\u003ePrime Cuts\u003c\/i\u003e, a career-defining 3-disc anthology that captures the wit, heart, and political bite of one of America's most original troubadours. A pioneer of the 'folk'n'word' movement, Chandler fuses poetic storytelling, music, and satire into a style all his own -- part beat poet, part protest singer, and entirely fearless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set includes his acclaimed \u003ci\u003eCollaborations\u003c\/i\u003e project, pairing Chandler with Martin Sexton, Dar Williams, Catie Curtis, Trout Fishing in America, Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul \u0026amp; Mary, Ellis Paul, and the Austin Lounge Lizards. The result is a dynamic blend of spoken word and song that's both deeply personal and universally resonant. As \u003ci\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/i\u003e once noted, Chandler is 'what Phil Ochs might have been if he'd come of age in the 1990s, influenced by Jello Biafra and Linton Kwesi Johnson instead of Elvis and Dylan.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince his start working as a teenage roadie for the Georgia Satellites, Chandler has lived and breathed the road -- performing thousands of shows across the U.S. and Canada at venues ranging from dive bars to the Kerrville Folk Festival, Lollapalooza, Ottawa, Vancouver, and the National Poetry Slam. His words, steeped in empathy and outrage, find their power in performance -- sharp, funny, and heartfelt. \u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/i\u003e described him bluntly: 'This man is dangerous.' \u003ci\u003eNPR\u003c\/i\u003e's Andrei Codrescu praised his 'acidly ironic still-rising utopianism.' \u003ci\u003eSing Out\u003c\/i\u003e called him 'a remarkably fertile and inventive mind,' while the legendary Utah Phillips declared, 'Chris Chandler is the best performance poet I have ever seen.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePrime Cuts\u003c\/i\u003e chronicles decades of Chandler's evolution -- from blistering social critiques to reflective storytelling and absurdist humor -- distilled into a rich body of work that continues to challenge, provoke, and inspire. For longtime fans and new listeners alike, this set offers the definitive portrait of an artist who turns truth-telling into an art form.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eNo One I Could Talk About This With\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNo Hiding Plkace Down Here\/Vinegar\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eCome Heres And The Been Heres\/Border Line Insanity\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHannibal\/Would You Die For a Necktie\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLionel Say\/Breakfast Serial Killers\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThis Town\/That Town\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWho Are These People?\/This Person\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNever Lived At All\/G Chord\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHard Times\/9th Ward New Orleans\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSomebody's Gotta Pay\/Injustice\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTo Be More Beautiful\/ Sofas \u0026amp; #2 Pencils\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eIsn't That So\/Too Much Of Nothing\/Whoop\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eI Wanna Be Like You\/The Ballad Of Theodore\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eBreakfast Serial Killers\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBlood To Wine\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThrift Store Diva (The Moon)\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSex\/Lets Do It\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLast Thoughts On Elvis Presley\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eCarnivals\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eYou're So Mundane\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSofas and #2 Pencils\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eInnocence\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWild Mountain Thyme\/Song\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eAngry Young Man\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBreakfast Serial Killers (radio edit)\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 3:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eCredit History\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTheodore\/I Wanna Be Like You\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Grasshopper\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTime\/As Time Goes By \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eG Chord\/Vibrations\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eA Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Abyss\/Candyman\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eGalaxy Song\/Dental History\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNo Hiding Place\/Vinegar\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eUnbound\/Miss Your Kiss\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eDon't Turn Me On Like A Radio\/Classic Rock\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBorderline Insanity\/France Ain't Nothing Like Texas\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eMy Grandmother\/Never Grow Old\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silverwolf Records\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Folk\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 178:13 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 04\/03\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 787991805028\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"SILVERWOLF","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47383053041913,"sku":"SWC8050","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/SWC8050.jpg?v=1770129228","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/chris-chandler-prime-cuts-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
