Melora a la Basilica is a 1000 unit collector's edition live recording made by American cello rock band Rasputina in Basilica Industria in Hudson, NY, "a behemoth of a defunct glue factory". It is a collection of previous Rasputina songs reworked with new second chair cellist Daniel DeJesus and covers of songs by Goldfrapp, Pearl Jam and the Sweeney Todd and A Clockwork Orange soundtracks.[1][2] The sound and atmosphere of the record was patterned after the recitals given earlier in the year by Creager and DeJesus.[3]
