A journey through world music with old man Van Dyke. Volume 3. The theme: "Phantom America?" You've never heard "Amazing Grace" like this! Discover America — a new release from Van Dyke Parks, the maestro and crown jewel of the US popular music world, out on his own label BANANASTAN.

Side B features the melody of that needless-to-say standard, the 19th-century hymn "Amazing Grace," performed by Van Dyke Parks on accordion with his orchestra. Side A carries "Hold Back Time," a product of "Orange Crate Art," the unexpected 1995 collaboration with Brian Wilson that came 30 years after their first pairing. This is the third installment in a run of six consecutive 7-inch releases. With its careful packaging and sleeve art by a different lavish lineup of artists each time, this looks set to be a treasured donut-hole single you absolutely must not miss. A lifetime keeper.
