Hey, it's the 20th anniversary half-speed master vinyl edition of the Smog classic, "Knock Knock"! Back in '99, Bill Callahan was staking out new territory. Issued in the wake of the game-changing "Red Apple Falls" album, "Knock Knock" upped the ante of the game, pairing his naked portraiture with increasingly delicate nuances in song and arrangement.
"Knock Knock" was enough of a tour de force that staging a re-look these twenty years later was a cool no-brainer. With production values at an all-time (for then) high and a team of Chicago-based studio rats (as well as a carefully vetted-and-compenstated singing children's choir) on the case, "Knock Knock" was the most colorful of Smog albums; a record that played like a real-life opera, a story told in song.
