Cody ChesnuTT – The Headphone Masterpiece

Reissue of the 2002 album, out on CD and vinyl. TPLP345DMM

One Little Indian Records is delighted to announce the re-issue of Cody ChesnuTT’s landmark 2002 double album, The Headphone Masterpiece.

It’s a sprawling work reminiscent of the golden age of pop radio, From sweet 60s soul to first wave British invasion, dirty south hip hop and post-modern dream pop. In short, it is an evolution of ChesnuTT’s life experience and influences.

His closest brush with mainstream success came in 2002, when the hip-hop group The Roots remade a song from his album, “The Seed”, for their album, Phrenology. The remade version (with ChesnuTT on guitar) was entitled “The Seed (2.0)” to distinguish it from Chesnutt’s original version.

The album features the track ‘Look Good in Leather’ off the Lynx / Caveman ad campaign.

“Cody ChesnuTT has got the most incredible voice. It caresses the ear like Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke or Smokey, velvety smooth, sometimes plaintive, sometimes dreamy… He also writes some really beautiful songs… sometimes singing in a similar vein of classic soul to the aforementioned, but often sounding like the dreamy side of Arthur Lee and Paul McCartney, maybe even Art Garfunkel and Nick Drake… mostly instrumented in classic guitar bass drums fashion. The vulnerable side of mid/late sixties songwriting has been thoroughly mined for his influences, for sure, but it’s nice to hear that side of things when so many people merely persist in badly ripping off the ‘Stones. There are so many good songs on here that it’s difficult to single them out for individual mention, and his voice is of a rare enough quality to be able to turn most anything into gold… It really does get under your skin.” – Drowned in Sound
