Recovering The Satellites [Import]

• Track Listing

'Recovering the Satellites' is the second studio album by American rock band Counting Crows, released in 1996, in the United States. Released three years (and two years of worldwide touring) after their debut album, it reached No. 1 in the United States and was a top seller in Australia, Canada, and the UK as well. For years, singer Adam Duritz felt this was his favorite album by the band. Joining Duritz in recording the album were founding band members David Bryson (guitar), Charlie Gillingham (keyboards), Matt Malley (bass), as well as new additions Ben Mize (drums) and Dan Vickrey (guitars). Multi-instrumentalist David Immerglück played on the album as a session musician as well. Counting Crows brought in producer Gil Norton for 'Recovering the Satellites'. (The track "Miller's Angels" was produced by Marvin Etzioni.) Three singles were released from the album, with "A Long December" being the best charting, reaching number 6 in the US and number 1 in Canada. The album itself peaked on the top spot of the Billboard Hot 200 album chart and has been certified double-platinum in both the US and Canada.
