The Richmond Recordings is a live release by John Spignesi and Joe Jeffery of The John Spignesi Band. It is their first release as a duo.
Background
Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Spignesi & Jeffery were limited to only playing outside gigs. Their last scheduled gig for 2020 was at a local brewery. Due to inclement weather, the gig was cancelled. Still wanting to play, the two headed to "HQ," better known as The Richmond House. Spignesi & Jeffery performed for the fans on Facebook live and recorded the session using Jeffery's equipment and software.
Sound
The Richmond Recordings features a very raw sound between Spignesi and Jeffery. There are no overdubs or re-takes, which means that vocal flubs and the natural sound of JSB shines through. Four of the eight songs were written in the year 2020, Jeffery having only heard them a handful of times.
Release
The Richmond Recordings were released for free on February 14, 2021. The session was made available via JSB's website as well as BandCamp. A limited number of physical copies exist, with many being mailed to those who engaged with JSB the most, whether it be online or at the band's shows.
