10 songs arranged by Mark Kozelek with lyrics by the legendary AC/DC singer, Bon Scott. This album is a beautiful acoustic treasure from one of the greatest singer/songwriter's of our generation.
Rolling Stone gave Mark Kozelek's debut solo album "Rock 'N' Roll Singer" 3 1/2 stars! Amazon.com awarded "Rock 'N' Roll Singer" one of the "Best of 2000."
It's been four years since Red House Painters released the critically acclaimed Songs for a Blue Guitar. While the band had wanted to focus on touring and get a break from the recording studio, legal difficulties ensured that the follow-up, Old Ramon, would be long awaited. It is only now considered for possible release later this year. But Red House Painters singer and songwriter Mark Kozelek still kept plenty busy. He recorded "Find Me, Ruben Olivares" for Badman Recording Co.'s Shanti Project Collection and several tracks for Take Me Home, Tribute to John Denver released by Badman earlier this year. After spending time in Los Angeles working on Cameron Crowe's (Jerry Maguire) most recent film, "Almost Famous," Kozelek casually recorded ten tunes at Badman Recording Co. over the past year and "What's Next to the Moon" became a reality.
The album is highlighted by several AC/DC that have been part of his recent acoustic tours. Obviously, a highlight is the title track, an unusual take on AC/DC's "What's Next to the Moon." Kozelek first began playing his interpretation to attentive listeners in Scandinavia and Spain. Not everyone was ready to believe that the tune originally sprang from the Australian head-bangers. It sounded too much like another fine Red House Painters original. In what has become a Red House Painters tradition -- from Kiss "Shock Me" to Yes "Long Distance Runaround" -- the transformation creates an entirely new song.
