Obviously, CWK have come a long way from recording Mulberry Street in 2005, playing venues all over the world and releasing their acclaimed Robbers & Cowards LP. Think of this as a special treat for uber-fans, a trip into what it was like to be part of what would become CWK as we know it, at the conception of the group. Or, to put it another way, think of this as their
proto-Basement Tapes.
The first two tracks offered for download are "Heavy Boots" and "The Soloist in the Living Room," and even though they're early tracks, the band's strong aesthetic of urban Americana (think Tom Petty, Tom Waits, etc.) was already strong.
