About this listen
What took four years, required a personal crisis of confidence, and started as a riff about “coronavirus”? The Butter Miracle: The Complete Sweets, apparently. Kyle Meredith sits down with Adam Duritz—who’s somehow still underrating “Einstein on the Beach”—to talk about finally releasing Butter Miracle, rewriting half the songs from scratch, and confronting the weird pressure of accidentally writing a perfect five-song rock record. Duritz opens up about unfinished Counting Crows songs (“Marjorie,” “Shallow Days”), finding personal connection in characters like Bobby, Elizabeth, and Maria, and how “Boxcars” began with a glam-Zeppelin riff screamed around the house mid-lockdown. He also shares why the band never put out a B-sides compilation (spoiler: tape machines and poor planning) why This Desert Life might secretly be everyone’s favorite, and when we could see more of their earlier albums on vinyl.
