The Boatman's Call
Released 1997Alternative & Indie
Classic
A hushed, piano-led record of heartbreak and faith, a stark turn toward intimacy. Beautiful and acclaimed. His most personal. Released in 1997, it's a key entry in Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds's run.
On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
