The Baseball Project - Grand Salami Time (CD)

2023 release, the fourth release from this supergroup featuring Scott McCaughey (The Minus 5/Young Fresh Fellows), Steve Wynn (The Dream Syndicate), Peter Buck and Mike Mills (R.E.M.) and Linda Pitmon (Filthy Friends). We're happy to say that The Baseball Project is finally coming home, scoring big and touching 'em all with their fourth album Grand Salami Time. The scoreboard is lighting up and the fireworks are illuminating the sky. This album is a homecoming of sorts, as the band recorded and produced the album with none other than the legendary Mitch Easter. BBP members Peter Buck and Mike Mills' made their first albums with Mitch back in the early '80s with a swingin' little combo called R.E.M. The album was recorded at Mitch Easter's fabled Fidelitorium Studios in Kernersville, North Carolina, with the entire band performing live together in the same room, a joyous experience that seemed impossible to imagine only one year before. Mitch adds guitar on a few tracks and the record also features appearances by Stephen McCarthy (The Long Ryders) and Steve Berlin (Los Lobos).
