"Another Good Year for the Roses" turns up on Back to Moon Beach, the record Kurt Vile put out through Verve Forecast in November 2023 and billed as an EP despite its album-length running time. Vile wrote it and produced it with Adam Langellotti and Cate Le Bon, and he is all over it: electric and baritone guitar, piano, cowbell and vocals, with Gia Margaret adding lead vocals of her own.
Most of the set was cut in 2019 at Panoramic House in Marin County, California, and it holds the final work of Rob Laakso of the Violators, who died of cancer early in 2023; here he handles guitar, bass, eBow and Moog. Farmer Dave Scher brings lap steel and melodica, Stella Mozgawa and Langellotti share the drums, and Rob Schnapf mixed the whole sun-warmed ramble.
