SUMMARY:Damien Jurado with St. Yuma
LOCATION:Gasa Gasa
DESCRIPTION:Play on\, theres no such thing as better days\, Damien Jurado 
 sings on Roger\, the sweeping wash of a song that opens Reggae Film Star\,
  his 18th full length album and second release from Jurados own Maraqopa R
 ecords label. But as he enters his 25th year as a recording artist\, its c
 lear these are\, at the least\, very good days for Jurado on the creative 
 front. In these 12 songs\, which evoke half-recalled dreams and overheard 
 conversations\, the cosmic rushes headlong into the autobiographical and s
 pecific moments on the clock fade from past to future to scenes set only i
 n the eternal now. Playing out like a backlot documentary filmed on the lo
 cation of an unnamed TV or film setmaybe a sitcom taping\, or perhaps its 
 a low budget science fiction B-movie\, or could it be a talk show?the albu
 m is populated by performers awaiting call times\, camera operators prayin
 g for their shot\, and studio audiences rapt with anticipation. The stars 
 here eschew glitz and glamor. Instead\, they wander grocery stores and par
 king lots in the verdant Pacific Northwest and the desert Southwest\, look
 ing for payphones and a sense of purpose. Produced by Jurado with multi-in
 strumentalist Josh Gordon and recording engineer Alex Bush at Sonikwire st
 udio in Irvine\,CA\, Jurados home away from home and musical headquarters\
 , the records compositions are among the most musically rich in his vast d
 iscography\, encompassing romantic AM gold\, 60s psychedelia\, driving roc
 k s unmistakable voice\, at once intimately present and ghostly\, grounded
  in the here and now but capable\, at any moment\, of drifting off into th
 e divinatory. Following threads established by 2021s The Monster Who Hated
  Pennsylvania\, the album sees Jurado embracing his auteur era\, penning v
 ignettes that arrive with little fanfare and depart quicker than you might
  suspect\, only to linger long after they wrap. Seeking a skeleton key to 
 decipher the action is beside the pointJurados songs are worlds meant to b
 e lived in\, not picked apartbut on the beatific single What Happened To T
 he Class Of 65? the singer imagines himself as both the viewer and the vie
 wed\, the eye behind the camera and its subject. This emotional and spirit
 ual transference animates Reggae Film Star. Like a masterful director\, Ju
 rado offers motivation to the listener\, staring unblinkingly from the mis
 e-en-scne in your mind. Look into the camera\, he commands on The Day Of T
 he Robot\, One more time with anger/And sadness/I believe you. A quarter-c
 entury in\, Jurado remains gripped by his visions and driven by an unmatch
 ed creative drive. Reggae Film Star is one of Damien Jurados finest works 
 to date\, a stunning new feature from one of indie rocks most cinematic fi
 gures. Here on this sound stage\, you are the camera\, you are the scene\,
  you are the setting\, and you are the viewer. Please try not to blink.-Ja
