    Waiting also to see if my Sylvian LP arrives, they're telling me it won't arrive till June 9, so we will see. Also, today I received a copy of Wilco's Cruel Country on CD, shipped from Connecticut with an Amazon UK shipping notice inside. I never ordered this, and there's no order it was mistaken for, based on the order number. Kind of a weird screw up on their part.

    Yes, I don’t think they have made this on vinyl that I’m aware of but could be wrong

    Shoot, I got the CD too. And it came bouncing around in an LP-sized box.

    Thanks for letting us know about this, I have been wanting this set for a long time. I am surprised that Amazon has this in stock, or that they are even carrying this - I thought it was a dead.net exclusive.

    I ordered this a year ago, red vinyl, big gouge at the end of one side. My second copy great tho. Such a good album it's worth the possible return hassle

    I've always preferred it to the more celebrated Talk Is Cheap, but I'm sure that puts me in the minority! :laugh:

    Norwegian folk group. Rune Walle & Gunn Alstadhaug – Byrdie's Dream. Melodic Americana country style music, with lots of harmonies and a soaring female vocalist. One song cops an entire chord structure from a Big Star song. Just one copy for sale on Discogs, and they're asking $55 over there. Amazon has it for $15.74 shipped.
    Amazon.com

    ====================================
    A few Amazon Warehouse finds:

    Kelsey Waldon is a modern 'honky-tonk' country singer. She's on John Prine's label, her album in "VG" condition is just $6.74 shipped
    Amazon.com

    1980's UK indie pop group The Chesterfields reformed and made a new record in 2022 . It features a-guy-from-The-Loft, which is an endorsement for me. "Like New' for $7.34 shipped
    Amazon.com

    Nathan Micay is a young electronic composer who did the soundtrack album for an HBO series called 'Industry'. It's bouncy electronica with lots of sequencers (you know, the sound of 'Industry'). There are some spoken-word overlays from the series, but I actually enjoyed them. Just $7.82 in "VG" condition:
    https://www.amazon.com/Industry-OST-Nathan-Micay/dp/B092D7YKY9

    Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead has done several soundtrack albums. The soundtrack to Power Of The Dog has fared poorly on Amazon, with a continuous slow slide in price. The warehouse has a "Like New" copy for $7.82. It's really really good, IMO.
    Amazon.com

    Nightlands is one of those one-man-indie-electropop projects, but he's survived for four albums. AND it's on the cool Western Vinyl label, which I enjoy. His latest 2022 album is $7.90 in "Like New" condition, and worth a consideration:
    Amazon.com

    If you collect ambient / electronica / world music stuff, you probably have Blue States CD's in your collection. He's been around for 20+ years, and he released a new album in 2022. In Like New condition for $9.76.
    Amazon.com

    ==================================

    I found this album over the weekend and wanted to spend a little time with it. It's not my normal style of music. But, perhaps you'll enjoy it as much as I do.

    This is a fingerstyle acoustic guitarist named Matthew J. Rolin. It turns out he's been around for years, releasing music privately and on a smaller label. He's got limited editions; he's got colored vinyl; he's got stuff that's gotten expensive on Discogs. He's got an album with a 20-minute song.

    His latest album is called Passing, and it took me back instantly to a Windham Hill album I enjoyed a great deal, David Qualey's Soliloquy. At that time, everybody compared Qualey to John Fahey (as they do Matthew J. Rolin, btw), although Rolin is also referenced with Jim O'Rourke's breakthrough 'indie' solo guitar album 'Bad Timing' from 1997. I remember Jeff Tweedy of Wilco mentioned this a couple of times in interviews I read.

    Passing is cheap today at Amazon, just $12.25 shipped. (Trouble is, when you want to buy the rest of his catalog, it's complicated and expensive. Oh, well ...)
    Amazon.com

    This is an older video, the song is not on Passing but gives you a sense of the player and the music:

    It’s a very good release. Any live Clapton during this period is. However, it seriously lacks any type of cohesion. His complete shows from the nothing but the blues tour, were phenomenal. The Setlist's were carefully curated to present a history of the blues.

    I took all the songs from this set, and combined them with all of the official and unofficial releases from the Fillmore concerts to create a full concert experience. I even added a few of the songs that were swapped out. Yawza!

    I wouldn’t listen any other way. It is phenomenal.

    Interesting. How do they press an album with one side gold and the other black?
