New Mix: Fruit Tree Records – The Fruit Cellar Vol. 3

Volume 3 of our shelf rifling dive into the deep Fruit Tree Records collection begins with a blast of baroque, sunshine pop from 2001 by Modesty Blaise, heard here in a single version available on the new re-issue album ‘Melancholia,’ which is extended into a 3-disc deluxe 25th anniversary release. We then go deep into a mix that spans seven decades and includes hot revivals in Rock, Americana, Jazz, Indie and much more. The full track listing with purchase information is below:
