Album Notes & Community Reviews

Liverpool's cult indie band Shack, led by brothers Mick and John Head, delivered a remarkably sunny, guitar-driven collection on 'The Corner of Miles and Gil'. Named as a nod to Miles Davis and Gil Evans, the record features soaring vocal harmonies and jangly, acoustic-led folk-pop melodies.
