Blau Karl - Vultures Of Love

Fakta Soon after moving to Germantown, Karl Blau began striking up conversations with the man he always saw refurbishing mid-century furniture on the corner near his house. It was Chris Covatta, a guitarist with a specialty furniture store and an instant kinship with Blau. A year or so later, Blau started helping out around Covatta’s shop, VintaDelphia, from making deliveries to polishing the goods. And then one day, not that long ago, Blau noticed an eighttrack, half-inch tape machine that had been gathering dust there for years. Covatta had forgotten where it came from and didn’t know the last time it worked. That was the first little miracle that led to Vultures of Love, a new record that feels like the culmination of the first quarter-century of Blau’s career.
