Unfortunately, criminal record troupe troubles both earlier and after the fact damaged the momentum of the track record. Jason Falkner (Portuguese man-of-war, the Grays, etc.) co-wrote over half the songs on the album with Benson, but the number one edition of the record album, produced by Falkner, was spurned by the mark, which place Benson back in the studio with new producer Ethan James (Jane's Addiction, etc.). Several of the Falkner-produced tunes were released by Virgin on a limited edition EP called The Wellfed Boy not coherent after Unitary Mississippi came out. As major-label power pop albums ar wont to do, 1 Mississippi sold passably scruffy, disdain substantiating reviews. Benson exhausted the next respective old geezerhood extricating himself from his Virgin narrow patch producing and appearance on other artists' records. Lapalco marked his autonomous debut, and its critical succeeder spurred his render to the major league in 2005 with The Alternative to Love. Benson so began collaborating with fellow Michiganian Jack White, of the White Stripes, authorship "Regular, as She Goes." The four-piece Raconteurs formed soon after, cathartic that vocal as their first single, and their album, Broken Boy Soldiers, in the spring of 2006. |
