Recorded direct to acetate - all live, no overdubs - Capitol Cuts - Live from Studio A captures a powerful moment in time. After months of cancelled shows Black Pumas went to Los Angeles this past fall & laid down 8 explosive tracks at the famed Capitol Studio A. The recording brims with pent up energy, nearly bursting through the grooves on the expansive & mind-blowing 7 minute rendition of "Colors." A few weeks later the song would receive a Grammy nomination for Record of the Year. Red LP.
