Timeless songs, beautiful tribute
THE JEFFREY LEE PIERCE SESSIONS PROJECT
“The Task Has Overwhelmed Us”
Album (Glitterhouse)
RELEASE DATE: 29.09.2023

To honor the legacy of Jeffrey Lee Pierce, “The Task Has Overwhelmed Us” was put together as a tribute to The Gun Club founder. The artists who reinterpret his songs or form fragments of them into finished pieces are impressive: Dave Gahan, who introduces the album with the soulful ballad “Mother of Earth,” or Nick Cave, who lends his unmistakable voice in “Yellow Eyes” and “Go Tell the Mountain.” He can also be heard with Debbie Harry in “On the Other Side”. Enough name-dropping: the album is a quality listen that highlights the timelessness of Jeffrey’s songs.
