{"product_id":"richard-ashcroft-human-conditions-2lp","title":"Richard Ashcroft - Human Conditions 2 LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally issued on Hut Records in October 2002, Human Conditions built on the success of Alone With Everybody, retaining the new fans he had gained with that record - This re-issue replicates the 2002 UK first pressing and is available on audiophile 180g double vinyl in gatefold sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It's a beautiful world,\" sings Ashcroft on opening track and lead single \"Check The Meaning\". Its eight-minutes seem a culmination of all of Ashcroft's work to date – a haunting guitar figure, swelling strings, and subtle orchestration back a lyric that catalogues the battle of love over evil, ending with Ashcroft assuring the listener \"It's gonna be alright.\" It is a powerful beginning to a powerful album. \"Buy It In Bottles\" maintains the introspection of \"The Drugs Don't Work\", a mood that can be also found on \"Running Away\" and \"Lord I've Been Trying\"; while \"Bright Lights\" and \"Paradise\" bring the anthemic rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Brian Wilson guests on one of your albums, it suggests a certain status has been attained; Richard Ashcroft demonstrated that he could hold his own in such company; both are songwriters of the human condition, and the song Wilson appears on \"Nature Is The Law\", closes Human Conditions in stellar fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
