The Ballad of Willy Robbins

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Three years ago, Vikesh Kapoor performed at Howard Zinn's memorial service in Boston, in front of Zinn's family and colleagues (including Noam Chomsky). Inspired by Zinn's lifelong battle against class/race injustice, Kapoor spent the next two years in Portland working on a concept record based on a related newspaper article. His debut album, The Ballad Of Willy Robbins, out on CD this past October, chronicles the brutal but hopeful story of a working class man who slowly loses everything: ambitions, health, family and shelter. The album was co-produced by Adam Selzer (M. Ward) and features Nate Query (Decemberists, Black Prairie), Jeff Ratner (Langhorne Slim) and Birger Olsen (Denver). This 140 gram vinyl disc contains a digital download card and a booklet insert. Also available on CD.
